greets!

Nik had a color problem in konqueror, I have one in VLC. this is in a 
variant of Trinity called q4os running Buster and VLC 3.0.10.

if I open 'multiple files' menu and add video files, the line for the 
first file is legible, the next line is black (not 'blank' but black) 
and this alternates.

in fact a similar phenomenon occurs if I go to Tools --> Preferences 
--> Show Settings (All).

here I get the alternating readable/black line but if I click on the 
black line it's readable but as a white font against a blue 
background.

I am using the default skin; other skins don't help. no other 
application I'm using shows these symptoms.

there are probably questions to answer about the display manager and 
so on but I can't anticipate them so I await them or advice.

thank you!

f.
