Oops; I no longer have the screenshots. However, my problem was slightly different. Instead of the white text being cleared, all non-white colors were cleared. -- Strange loss of colors in text-mode terminal https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/70403 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 70403] Re: Strange loss of colors in text-mode terminal
Michiel's screenshots have gone offline again, but I think I'm seeing a similar issue. If my laptop is on battery power, it skips filesystem checks, and prints an orange asterisk in the console when it does this (see CIMG1131.JPG). However, as with Michiel, it goes into powersave after a while, and clears all the white text from the console. However, it doesn't clear the orange asterisk (see CIMG1130.JPG). Is this the same bug? ** Attachment added: "CIMG1131.JPG" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20793092/CIMG1131.JPG -- Strange loss of colors in text-mode terminal https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/70403 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 70403] Re: Strange loss of colors in text-mode terminal
** Description changed: It seems that if you leave a text-mode terminal alone for some time, it will go into a power-saving mode of some sort. I don't know how to otherwise describe it, so here are two pictures that show what I mean: - http://thingmajig.org/tmp/strange_0.jpg - normal text-mode terminal - http://thingmajig.org/tmp/strange_1.jpg - the same terminal after being left alone for a while, missing grey, blue and purple (note: the screen _does_ go fully blank after some time) + http://test.thingmajig.org/25-08-07_0006.jpg - normal text-mode terminal + http://test.thingmajig.org/25-08-07_0005.jpg - the same terminal after being left alone for a while, missing grey, blue and purple (note: the screen _does_ go fully blank after some time) Dapper simply blanked the entire screen instead of doing this, and I feel it's much better and less awkward that way. I actually don't know whether this is a bug, or a feature, or a change in default settings, but either way, I believe that this is worth looking at. -- Strange loss of colors in text-mode terminal https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/70403 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Attempting to guess where this might belong.

[Bug 70403] Re: Strange loss of colors in text-mode terminal
I've taken new photos of this bug while still using 7.04. See here a normal, everyday tty session: http://test.thingmajig.org/25-08-07_0006.jpg After a while of doing nothing (a "while" is about the time when one would dim the screen to save energy), the screen suddenly looks like this: http://test.thingmajig.org/25-08-07_0005.jpg Half the screen is suddenly missing. After another while, the screen goes into real sleep mode. I think it's very awkward. -- Strange loss of colors in text-mode terminal https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/70403 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Sorry, the images are offline by now. I will retake these screenshots with the latest testing version soon to see whether the problem has persisted.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Thanks in advance. The issue that you reported is one that should be reproductable with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Gutsy Gibbon. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed in the actively developed release.
