There is nothing bash can do about this. It does not even know what the
background color is.
gnome-terminal sets the background color and it also sets all the other
colors.
So, the original complaint is that the default colors of gnome-terminal
provide suboptimal contrast to the default background, which is white.
As a workaround for the bug submitter: You could try the other color
schemes in gnome-terminal, like rxvt, which have more saturated colors.
** Changed in: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: bash => gnome-terminal
Status: Incomplete => New
** Summary changed:
- light blue on white unreadable: ssh login
+ default colors provide bad contrast to default background
** Description changed:
- 1. installed ssh server on hardy
- 2. using the standard terminal with white background to log into another
server
- 3. log into hardy again
- 4. gives quite unreadable colors: light blue on white. see attachement.
+ The default colors of gnome-terminal are not optimally readable on a
+ white background. They should be more saturated.
+
+ The original submitter especially did not like the "light blue" color,
+ which should be darker in his opinion.
