But I change the darkblue to white!! What I done? OMG? now I even can not see what I type on vim on the command mode. please tell me how to tell vim to use its default coloring.

While this is not Ubuntu specific, a similar question is 264258. Just like you edit ~/.vimrc before, put in your own commands:

set background=dark highlight Normal ctermfg=grey ctermbg=white

The help file might can give you more background.
