I was able to fix this for all users by modifying /etc/xdg/xfce4/xfconf /xfce-perchannel-xml/xsettings.xml. I changed:
- <property name="ThemeName" type="string" value="Greybird"/> - <property name="IconThemeName" type="string" value="elementary-xfce-dark"/> + <property name="ThemeName" type="string" value="Adwaita"/> + <property name="IconThemeName" type="string" value="Tango"/> There is no "Greybird" theme on my system nor can I find one in the repositories. The file is in the xfce4-settings package, but I wonder why gnome-terminal (or gtk) isn't reverting to something sensible when a non-existent theme is chosen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/980710 Title: black font on black background in xfce terminal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/980710/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
