How does the Ubuntu developer works ? Not in Terminal ? I work in Terminal everyday, and it's a painful experience because of this unreadable color scheme.
Until this gets fixed, here's a way to workaround it : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1297960&p=8481222#post8481222 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/808498 Title: default LS_COLORS are annoyingly unreadable Status in “gnome-terminal” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: To reproduce: 1) Open a terminal 2) Cd to a directory where you have a lot of different kind of files 3) type ls The default colors are terrible. Most of the time you can't read most of the entries in a directory listing. Some file names are shown with electric blue text on a blueish green background. Note that I am not daltonic. Default colors don't need to be beautiful but they do have to be reasonably readable ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.10 Package: gnome (not installed) ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.35-30.54-generic 2.6.35.13 Uname: Linux 2.6.35-30-generic i686 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Architecture: i386 Date: Sun Jul 10 22:07:38 2011 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS "Lucid Lynx" - Release i386 (20100429) ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.utf8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: meta-gnome2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/808498/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
