Cursor invisible in dark theme about emacs-color-theme-solarized HOT 7 CLOSED

Changing cursor colors to the following seems to fix it:

   (cursor
       ((t (:foreground ,base02 :background ,base1 :inverse-video t))))

Is this happening in a terminal, in the GUI, or both? And which platform (and GUI – Cocoa, GTK, etc.) are you using?

I'm using Aquamacs currently (please don't shoot me)
Want me to test the theme in a terminal and X11 ?

I'm using Emacs on Fedora 16 in the Xorg and I've got the same issue. That fix has helped me.

Ubuntu 11.04, GNU Emacs 23.2.1, dark theme, cursor too similar to background (tested on 3 screens), the letter under the cursor practically invisible. The fix helped me, too.

Edit: I don't have any of hl-line-mode or idle-highlight-mode enabled. My .emacs is here: https://github.com/Mikolaj/mydotflies.

I get this problem with hl-line-mode enabled. Then the cursor takes on a similar colour to the background. Without hl-line-mode I get an inverse affect between the text colour and cursor colour, which I think is what is intended.

Same problem with idle-highlight-mode.

This should be fixed now.
