OK, done some experimenting, and found that the following .gtkrc-2.0
works for me:


# Use the GnuBubble theme...
include "/usr/share/themes/GnuBubble/gtk-2.0/gtkrc"

# ...but with a less blinding background colour
style "gb-new" = "gb-default" {
  base[NORMAL] = "#abcdef"
}
class "GtkWidget" style "gb-new"


The trick was to use "base[NORMAL]" rather than "bg[NORMAL]", and apply
the style to all widgets.

Now if only there was a hotkey to eject a CD...
