Running Debian stable, with Foxfire 1.04. In Firefox, there is a
problem with the drop-down menus. Unhighlighted items show as black text
against a grey background (as expected). But items highlighted by moving
the mouse cursor over them show as white text on white background (thus
unreadable)! Yet clicking the menu items works as normal.

This does not seem to happen for any other program, and does not occur
in Icewseasel (Etch). Has anyone else experienced this? If so, is
there a solution?

Yeah, this is definitely related to what theme is being used. I had
that problem with the early versions of Firefox too, and the fix was
just installing and using a different theme.

Switching to a different theme does solve the problem, but it shouldn't
be necessary to do so.

Sloppy, sloppy programming . . .
