Hi,

If i send the linux 'terminal' a control code like:
  echo -e "\33[44m"
then this gives the command line a dark blue background.
  echo -e "\33[0m"
or
  echo -e "\33[m"
returns the background back to normal.

If i do the same command in an xterm, then it gives a light
blue background. I've set the gamma values in XF86Config-4 ok.

I put in my ~/.Xresources:

xterm*color4: blue

So when i do: echo -e "\33[44m"
in an xterm, i now get a saturated rgb:0,0,255
blue like the linux console.

Isn't this light blue a bug in xterm? It says in "man xterm"
that color4 and color12 should default to "blue", which is
0,0,255 in /etc/X11/rgb.txt.

This may not affect X apps, but it affects ncurses apps like
midnight commander.
