Just to clarify I am *not* running Xubuntu. This install may well have started out as Xubuntu but it was successfully converted to Ubuntu during the Xenial cycle. gedit worked perfectly both before and after upgrading to *Ubuntu* Yakkety.
I noticed this problem yesterday so possibly caused by a conflict with a recently upgraded package? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1620806 Title: gedit edit window is transparent Status in gedit package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In a freshly booted and fully updated Ubuntu 16.10 the edit window of gedit is transparent using the *Classic* colour scheme. Other colour schemes seem to work as intended. The text of loaded files shows against the desktop wallpaper. I don't know when this started as I don't normally used gedit to edit files. I haven't found any other application affected by this problem.
