Things to check:

        - What are TERM and COLORTERM set to?  I use rxvt and have
          TERM set to xterm-color and COLORTERM set to rxvt.  I don't
          know what the appropriate values are for xterm.

        - Does your .vimrc have "syntax on"?

        - Does coloring work in a console?  In an rxvt?  Experiment
          and see if you can narrow it down to a vim problem, or an
          xterm problem, etc.

FWIW color hilighting is working fine for me.
