If you are using the GTK+ build (which is what is distributed in the default =E2=80=98emacs24=E2=80=99 Debian package), then the screws are in y= our GTK+ theme. If your build uses GTK+3 and your GTK+3 theme has dark and light subtheme support, it may be a matter of choosing the right subtheme. Try: $ GTK_THEME=3DAdwaita emacs -Q and: $ GTK_THEME=3DAdwaita:dark emacs -Q On the other hand, if you are using Emacs in terminal (using the =E2=80=98emacs24-nox=E2=80=99 package or the -nw switch) or the Lucid toolk= it build (=E2=80=98emacs24-lucid=E2=80=99 package), then M-x customize-face RET menu= RET should help you.
