Do you mean graphical gvim window or vim running in a terminal? In the
latter case which one and should vim follow terminal background? Is tmux
or screen involved?
Besides colorscheme there is another setting
:set background=dark
or
:set background=light
I do not remember if proper value is reliably chosen during startup e.g.
for terminal applications setting TERM=xterm-256color
Finally, if
colorscheme white
works despite the warning, what happens if you commented out or removing
this line?
