Eclipse specific colour change with new Ubuntu themes -
all 1 colour problem in eclipse new ubuntu (10.10) dark themes.
want change one, not theme.
this background/colour used eclipse in lists (explorer, open resource) when item pre selected (a selected item displays ok).
the current display white on light-grey, not readable.
where can change that?
update july 2012 (18 months later):
with latest eclipse4.2 (june 2012, "juno") release, won't depend on os colors anymore.
see article lars vogel in "eclipse 4 beautiful – create own eclipse 4 theme":

if want play it, need write plug-in, create css file , use
org.eclipse.e4.ui.css.swt.themeextension point point file.
if export plug-in, place in “dropins” folder of eclipse installation , styling available.
original answer: december 2010
it system color (a background color based on underlying os system color properties), have change property in theme, not setting in eclipse.
for instance, see "how change color of menu text?" (but may not how dark theme works , will need tweak ~/.gnome* files)
