Dear Andrea,
I would suggest, if at all possible, to use a more recent version of
coot, or at least test it.
0.8.1 is almost 2 years old, and the new ones are available for debian
as tar files here:
http://www2.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/Personal/pemsley/coot/
Even if you are not an administrator on the system, it is easy to use
coot locally on your own system.
That being said, without knowing anything else about your system, it
could also be some sort of graphics card/driver issue, but that is not
easy to tell from the information provided.
Best regards,
Folmer

Hi everybody,
I am using coot (version 0.8.1) on a linux debian system. Atom labels
are shown in black and on a black background this is not ideal.
Unfortunately changing the color in Edit>Preferences>Others>Fonts
doesn't seem to work (color is always black even if I select a
different one). How can I solve this issue?
Thanks,
Andrea
