Maybe the default color changed? Try these two things: 1.) Add the following xterm-equivalents (im using aterm) to your ~/.Xdefaults file: $ grep ground .Xdefaults Aterm*background: black Aterm*foreground: white 2.) Make X read you ~/.Xdefaults file: $ grep defaults .xsession xrdb -load ~/.Xdefaults Julius -- Julius Plenz, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Surf, Mail, Smile! www.cvmx.de/ <>< http://plenz.com/ Please don't Cc me in your replies, thanks #129455376 3993 FD19 2AF0 E21E 5D74 E963 144C 5EE9 186D CA0D gpg --verbose --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-key 0x186DCA0D -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
