i'm running now: Package: xserver-xfree86 Version: 4.2.1-9 and Package: xterm Version: 4.2.1-9 I'm seeing it still, reversed xterm, normal xterm, different fonts: $ xterm -rv -vb -fn courier xterm: unable to open font "courier", trying "fixed".... * effect is still there $ xterm -rv -vb -fn 5x8 * idem $ xterm -rv -vb -fn 6x13bold * idem $ xterm -rv -vb -fn "-monotype-courier new-bold-r-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-iso8859-5" * idem Package: rxvt Version: 1:2.6.4-6 doesn't have the artifact - so indeed it looks to be a xterm problem. I could not (quickly) make it happen that _all_ X related packages were of version 4.2.1-9, but - heh - if 'apt' doesn't complain I also don't :) grtz Miek -- In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice.
