Title:
  filesystem selection in manual partitioning appears all greyed out
  making for a confusing experience

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Installing 64bit Oneiric beta 1 on a 64bit virtualbox VM.  In this
  test, I elected to do manual partitioning.  I began by creating a swap
  partition.  When I clicked on the filesystem list (Use as:) the list
  that is displayed is a dark grey background with almost the same shade
  text.  This makes it appear as though all the filesystem options are
  greyed out and not usable.

  This, in turn, makes the UI rather confusing as it appears I have no
  valid filesystem options.

  Expected result:

  Filesystem list (and any other list that displays like this) has much
  lighter text color, which signifies an available option, instead of a
  nearly impossible to read text color, which typically signifies a non-
  available option.
