Just upgraded to xorg-server-1.5.3-r5, and now I see some sort
of pattern on the edge of my xterms; reminiscent of the gray
background of basic xwindows.
I seem to recall seeing this years ago, and having to modify a
configuration somewhere (e.g. with "solid" or "black" or ??).
Can't remember if it was a fluxbox configuration, .Xdefaults,
XDM, Xorg, or .........
Would love to see this go away..... any ideas, please?
Can you upload a screenshot somewhere?
Here 'tis: <http://www.fileqube.com/file/cuBQoco187071>
(upper right hand corner of the xterm; top is o.k.; right side is
hashed)
TIA
Is it the scrollbar? if I run "xterm -sb -rightbar" I can see
something similar on my system.
That's it. It is the same gray "hash" that appears as the background if
you were to start X using xorgcfg to self generate an xorg-config.
It's obviously something one can learn to live with (I work a lot with
xterms); just irritating that I had it under control a while back, and
suddenly it reappears. I'm guessing that Alan McKinnon has it right, and
that xorg has a minor bug; that the -br parameter no longer works.
