Hi! The short answer is, 'darklooks' theme from 'gnome-themes-extras' package.
Optionally, please read more: Unfortunately, the only useable official dark theme, 'darkroom' theme, was kicked from mainstream (at least 2 years ago) and then totally deleted. So i emulate it by simple customizing colors of exists themes (so my screenshots are not directly reproduceable), but i always setup correct colors for dark theme (all dark backgrounds and all bright text) and it's easy to reproduce without additional steps. One remaining "dark" theme is 'darklooks', but it's unfortunately not really useable, it can be used mainly for test. The steps to uniformly reproduce are:- Run Ubuntu 10.10 LiveCD (runs well in Virtualbox also) to ensure no user or other settings will affect results. Selest 'Try Ubuntu' without installing. Enable 'Universe' sources in software-center Install in synaptic 'gnome-themes-extras' stuff in Preferences-Appearance select 'darklooks' theme. Start software-center again and see it is version 3.0.8 (in 'about') and ensure no apt-get upgrade needed. Point in software-center to anything already installed, and see word 'installed' in almost unreadable colour (at least it is black, while in dark theme all text must be white). At least 99% of dark themes bugs can be, as first aid, solved by *remove* additional colouring of items and let it be system-coloured. The worst case is colouring by constant color independent of theme. The best case is all additional (not theme-defined) colors, if we really need it, must be calculated from theme-defined. Sorry if it's an offtopic.
