"Eclipse for PHP Developers" highlight color

I've just installed Eclipse for PHP Developers and for the most part it works fine, but I seem to have a problem with the highlighter:

If you hold control and then roll-over a method, eclipse shows a pop-up of the first few lines of source of the method (That's obviously not as useful as JavaDoc, but whatever). The problem is that the background of this popup is black and I can't seem to figure out which preference to set to change this.

Bonus points, BTW, if you can tell me how to adjust the PHP Eclipse colors.

This is a bug which actually has to do with Ubuntu as well as Eclipse: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/light-themes/+bug/540332

I've not gotten it to work locally yet, but this is a good head start.

In the Eclipse Preferences, select PHP -> Editor -> Syntax Coloring to change the colors.

By the way... some people say Netbeans is much better for PHP development currently.
