[SOLVED] Mathematica 10.3 colors and toolkit are wrong

I installed mathematica 10.3 from the AUR. The install went fine and mathematica loads as usual. However, the gui looks awful. Black text on black background everywhere and so far I haven't been able to change anything. Setting XDefaultApplicationStyle to other values makes no difference. I run i3wm, also tried this is fluxbox and it looks the same.  Here is what it looks like: http://imgur.com/Ax9zJLh. Any help would be appreciated!

This guy http://mathematica.stackexchange.com/qu … s-in-linux seems to have had the same problem as me, but he didn't post his resolution of the issue.

EDIT: this is solved via qtconfig-qt4 as explained here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=204197. Just set button and window background colors to be light grey and then change XDefaultApplicationStyle to whichever theme you picked in qtconfig.
