Thanks for your reply, and please pardon MY late reply to you. In my
newly installed Xserver 4.0 (as part of my 7.1 upgrade), I had white text on
a white background (I could SOMETIMES change part of the screen to Pumpkin
color (the color I had set for the root toolbar in my 7.0 installation)) with
black and blue horizontal stripes obscuring. Working with an illegible
screen I screwed things up so badly I had to reinstall (this means it
wouldn't even boot to a login screen, before somebody asks). Since I was
doing it over anyhow, I tried it several different ways and ended up
patritioning / (root) much larger. The install of 7.0 and update to 7.1 went
smoothly and completed Thurs night. I have 460 newbie messages to catch up
with before I go back to set up sound and modem and begin working with it.
