Hi,
I notice that the emacs color configuration behavior has changed since 12.04.
My 10+ years of emacs color configuration is now broken, and nowhere did I
found on the internet talking about such change.
To duplicate:
$ cat > ~/.Xdefaults
Emacs.Foreground: honeydew
Emacs.Background: black
Emacs*cursorColor: yellow
Then start emacs with
emacs -q --no-site-file &
under X.
emacs should start with the designated color, however, in Ubuntu 12.04,
it will always start black on white.
Please verify.
Thanks
