Which PB do you have?

Have you updated to 4.0.1 (run 'yum update')?

I had a similar problem on my 15" 1.5 Aluminum Powerbook. The blue login screen
was brown, and text input boxes were yellow instead of white. I can't remember
exactly what fixed it, but it was one of the options in XF86Config. I think it
might have been removing "UseFBDev" "true". But my pb has that ATI Radeon
Mobility M10/M11, so you might have a different problem...

I've attached my XF86Config for reference...
