Package: xterm Version: 4.3.0-7 Severity: normal Hello,
xterm, on startup, always displays black text on a white background. That is, the following three commands do the exact same thing: xterm xterm -rv xterm +rv Also, specifying XTerm*reverseVideo: true does not alter the startup colors. However, selecting reverse video from the middle-mouse-button menu will toggle the colors. I'm somewhat puzzled. -- John -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.4 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C Versions of packages xterm depends on: ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-11 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libexpat1 1.95.6-8 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libfontconfig1 2.2.2-1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.1.7-2 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libice6 4.3.0-7 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libncurses5 5.4-2 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libsm6 4.3.0-7 X Window System Session Management ii libxaw7 4.3.0-7 X Athena widget set library ii libxext6 4.3.0-7 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxft2 2.1.2-6 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxmu6 4.3.0-7 X Window System miscellaneous util ii libxpm4 4.3.0-7 X pixmap library ii libxrender1 0.8.3-7 X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxt6 4.3.0-7 X Toolkit Intrinsics ii xlibs 4.3.0-7 X Window System client libraries m ii xlibs-data 4.3.0-7 X Window System client data -- no debconf information
