Package: xterm Version: 232-1 Severity: normal The color of the pointer is always white and I cannot change it, either with the pointerColor resource, or with the -ms option, even though I get:
vin:~> appres XTerm | grep pointerColor *pointerColor: red Even if I change the foreground color with "xterm -fg red", the pointer remains white, though the xterm man page says: -ms color This option specifies the color to be used for the pointer cursor. The default is to use the foreground color. This sets the pointerColor resource. This problem seems to have appeared when I reinstalled my machine in 64 bits (x86_64), but I'm not sure. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.ISO8859-1 (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages xterm depends on: ii libc6 2.7-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libfontconfig1 2.5.0-2 generic font configuration library ii libice6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libncurses5 5.6+20080203-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libsm6 2:1.0.3-1+b1 X11 Session Management library ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-7 X11 client-side library ii libxaw7 2:1.0.4-1 X11 Athena Widget library ii libxext6 1:1.0.3-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxft2 2.1.12-2 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxmu6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous utility library ii libxt6 1:1.0.5-3 X11 toolkit intrinsics library ii xbitmaps 1.0.1-2 Base X bitmaps Versions of packages xterm recommends: ii x11-utils 7.3+1 X11 utilities ii xutils 1:7.3+10 X Window System utility programs m -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
