Open your terminal and edit this file
vi .gtkrc-2.02
An empty Text document will open, and you need to copy/paste the following lines
include “/home/autocrosser/.gnome2/panel-fontrc”style “desktop-icon”
{
NautilusIconContainer::frame_text = 1
text[NORMAL] = “#000000″
NautilusIconContainer::normal_alpha = 70
}
class “GtkWidget” style “desktop-icon”
#NautilusIconContainer::dark_info_colour=”#888888″
#NautilusIconContainer::light_info_colour=”#bbbbbb”
#NautilusIconContainer::highlight_alpha=200
style “my_colour”
{
fg[NORMAL] = “#000000″
}
widget “*PanelWidget*” style “my_colour”
widget “*PanelApplet*” style “my_colour”
widget_class “*MenuItem*” style “my_colour”
widget_class “*ToolItem*” style “my_colour”
widget_class “*SeparatorMenuitem*” style “my_colour”
widget_class “*SeparatorToolitem*” style “my_colour”
widget_class “*ImageMenuitem*” style “my_colour”
widget_class “*RadioMenuitem*” style “my_colour”
widget_class “*CheckMenuitem*” style “my_colour”
widget_class “*TearoffMenuitem*” style “my_colour”
save and exit the file
Change the colour code of: fg[NORMAL] = “#000000″
To whatever you like, and the text in gnome panels will become that colour.
If you don’t know the code for the colour you want, you can use this little handy program.
sudo apt-get install gcolor2
If you want to access this program use the following command
gcolor2
