Hi, Thanks, i'd forgotten that .Xsession doesn't seem to be read for resources. Anyway, i put this into ~/.Xresources: xterm*color0: black xterm*color1: red xterm*color2: green xterm*color3: yellow xterm*color4: blue xterm*color5: magenta xterm*color6: cyan xterm*color7: white xterm*color8: black xterm*color9: red xterm*color10: green xterm*color11: yellow xterm*color12: blue xterm*color13: magenta xterm*color14: cyan xterm*color15: white And now blue is a nice dark saturated blue like on a normal linux console. Running midnight commander now has a nice dark blue background instead of that washed-out light blue background. 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. _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
