           Summary: text in kopete chat input box often switches to black
                    on black background and then can't be switched back
           Product: kopete
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kopete-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: kdebugs at afterclap.com


Version:            (using Devel)
Compiler:          gcc 4.3.2 
Installed from:    Compiled sources

This has been happening for a month.

I'll he happily chatting away to someone, then all of a sudden my text is black
on a black blackground. As I type I can't see what I'm typing, until I hit
return and it moves to the chat log.

Once it turns black SOMETIMES pasting some text from a website into the box
will fix the problem. Sometimes it won't. One time when I randomly pasted a
link my text changed to blue underline (also on a black background) and then at
least I could see the text (since blue appears on top of black) but I couldn't
remove the blue or underline (it turned itself off randomly several weeks
later).

Attempting to change my text colour in the formatting toolbar makes no
difference. Nor does turning off rich text display. This is frustrating, as
I've been doing some development for Kopete and have some more fixes in the
works, but this makes it so unusable I've had to switch clients.
