G'day, I am running rh 7.1 (2.4.9) on a Pentium II 300. Recently a strange problem has started to appear. >From time to time when going into the GUI (Gnome or KDE) the basic background colour changes from black to dark green. In other words things that are normally black (I use terminal windows with black background and bright green foreground), are now green. Going back to console mode (character-mode) this colour remains. It is not a function of the monitor display, because using a different monitor does produce the same thing. I have Windows 98 on the same machine and have no such problem there, so it must be caused by software in the linux setup? Rebooting does not work either. I boot into runlevel 3 wich starts with a normal black background but as soon as I go into the GUI the colour comes back. This green colour does change from one occasion to the next in intensity. Leaving the computer off (overnight ) usually cures the problem, but changing runlevels (3 to 5) a number of times may bring the green colour back. It is a total mystery to me.
Any takers? Greeting. ---------------- R&C Mann [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
