Did the upgrade to Gnome 2.4 and am seeing some bizarre behavior. First, xterm is behaving strangly with regards to colors.
In my .xinitrc I have: xterm& exec gnome-session Xterm starts first with a pure white background. Every subsequent xterm starts with a light gray background. Why? Also, if I ssh into another box it resets my white background as gray - Doesn't matter what the box is - could be Deb woody, Redhat, Solaris, etc. My bright-white is gone from the first xterm.... Second problem is with fonts. In the sawfish configurator, the default font is "fixed". No matter what I try and change it to, it brings up 2 dialog boxes, the first dialog claims "while changing default-font: Error: unknown font, -*-whateverfontname-*-yaddapointsize-*-*..." and the second dilog is "while changing default-font: Error: unknown font, -*-*-*-*-*....." (replace the whatever / yada with the real names / sizes of the font selected...) Note that fonts work great in apps like galeon, the font selector preview in sawfish configurator, etc. Just can't choose them.
