Hi Guys, My name is Richard I am new to the PLUG, just signed up to the mailing list a few days ago, and new to linux, you'll hear more about my set up below....
First off, I am sorry if this is too basic or if anyone has covered this before but I really need some help here. And yes I really am a noob, but I really want to pick up linux as a workable alternative to the next windows upgrade, Vista. I know you cant really comapre these two operating systems, but coming from a windows background I cant help it, so I appologise for any offense. Now on to the request... Being ever the geek I like working from a CLI, I am running Fedora Core 4 and I boot to runlevel 3 (text only - multiuser). Trouble is, I hate the standard white text and I want to geek it up a bit by having green text on black background. I found a command to do this, which I have given below: *setterm -foreground green * However I find that as soon as I run a simple command like *ls*, the colour returns to default, and once this is acheived, I would also like this to be automatically set to green on boot up, ie I dont want to have to login first and then set this command each time. Hope you can help. Regards Richard *Current *nux System:* IBM T20 Laptop (very old) running Fedora Core 4 -- ***** Richard Forth MCSE, MCSA:Messaging, ACP, Network+, A+ WTF Taekwondo BJC Judo Shukokai Karate *****
