I've also seen something similar (in full-screen) on my FC1 (not fully
following Jarod's guide) setup, the delete or options dialog for a
recording will appear, but in a pale colour, I have to go back and
choose the menu again and it will appear in full-colour. I'm not sure
it's a focus thing or a screen painting thing. Just upgraded to FC2
(following Jarod's guide) so will let you know if it appears here too.

I've also experienced exactly this (again in FC1) and found that I had
to restart X to clear this behaviour. Will also keep you posted re
FC2.
