Software :: Screen App / Retain BG / Color Background Color Gets Lost
Jul 6, 2009
I am using the screen app, and have set bce to on, and issued the following commands to set my background and foreground color: tput setab 4; clear; tput setaf 7; clear;
This temporarily sets everything properly on my screen. However, when I issue any commands that change or set their own background color (for example, when I issue an "ls" command with colorized output), the background color gets lost for any new output and I have to reissue the commands listed above in order to retrieve my background color.Ideally I'd like to keep my background color when issuing these commands, as it serves as a good way to remind me of what environment I am currently issuing commands in.

Just upgraded to Debian Jessie. I'm having a problem with the desktop and lockscreen that I never had before in Debian 7. Whenever I open the laptop to wake it up, there is very bad discoloration of the background. (screenshot : [URL] ..... )
Hardware is an IBM Lenovo T410 with no customizations. The graphics are factory nvidia. 3D acceleration works flawlessly, and I have no other issues except this background problem.

I'm using xterm/screen/vim, and set them up to 256 color mode. Everything went well, except when background color for the theme I choose is not black.
Here's the theme I use in this example:[URL].. Here's the situation: as long as I only use vim, the background is well rendered, meaning everything is grey in vim background. But when I try this with screen, the background is back to black, and only the text get some kind of highlight with the background color.Here are the magical lines I added to screenrc:
Code:
term screen-256color
attrcolor b ".I"
# Tell screen how to set colors. AB = background, AF=foreground
termcapinfo xterm 'Co#256:AB=E[48;5;%dm:AF=E[38;5;%dm'
# Erase background with current bg color. Not needed if TERM=screen-256color
defbce "on"
Colors are well rendered in 256 color, I only have a problem with this background. Anyone knows how to 'fix' this?

I use ssh via KDE 4.4.3 konsole to connect to a 2.6.28-18-generic Ubuntu SMP machine,on which I use vim 7.2 and screen 4.00.03jw4. Within a screen session, the background color persists on the screen session even after closing vim. I dont know if this is a konsole or bash or screen or vim colorscheme problem.

I use a terminal with white text on black background (I just like it better), so I wrote the following line in my .vimrc file: set background=dark
However, gvim has black on white text. How do I do either of the following: Set the background of gvim to black Check in .vimrc if I'm using gvim I tried this: I started up gvim, and typed echo &term. The answer was "builtin_gui". So I wrote the following into .vimrc:
if &term == "builtin_gui"
set background=light
else
set background=dark
endif
Somehow, it didn't work.

I don't know much about scripting and so despite my best efforts i can't seem to get my script right and I was wondering how to do the following:at startup set the background color to a certain hex valueover time cycle through the entire range of possible values from (0x000000 to 0xFFFFFF)do this slowly, not abruptlystart the script every time I loginI know I need to use gconftool-2 -t str --set /desktop/gnome/background/primary_color "#$COLOR"where COLOR is a hex value variablebut really beyond that the specifics of how to time the updating of the hex value or whether a variable can be a hex value at all (if not how to work around that).

would anyone know how to change the widget plotter background color? I used to be able to do it in 9.10 by doing a right click/properties/advanced. In Lucid, I no longer see that advanced tab so I have no idea how to change that widget gray color? has this functionality moved somewhere else?? I looked all over the place in System Settings but I can't find anything.

I know how to change the colors of the panels. But on the parts were the ubuntu symbol, the menus (Applications, Places, and Systems), the date and time, and the indicator applets is, they do not change at all. And pretty much the same problem on the bottom panel.
I tried Gnome color changer but only works for the texts and the drop down menus. I use Gnome classic (hated Unity). My goal is to make ALL of the panel background black.

I have 1000 jpg files in which all have a white background. Is is possible to change the white background color to red (for example) of all the files in order not to have to do it one by one ?
I would prefer to use Linux but I can handle Windows.
For example, change this Logo with white background to red background.

When I type (in new 10.10) soem cmdline comands like "ls -l" then some of the directories have a different fore-and background color (e.g. black on green) while the remaining other directoreis are blue on white.
Where can I find out the meaning of the diferent colors and how can I change them?
If I go to menu
Terminal->Edit->Profile Preferences->Color
then I can set only the full overall background and foreground color. But here only certain parts have a different color. the main color (black on white) is suitable. I do not use system theme.

I have an HP color laser printer and I am looking for a way to print black as black instead of using tri-color. For example If I print a document that has colored text then any black text is printed using the color cartridges rather then using black. I have been surviving by using windows XP in virtualbox but I'm hoping someone can help me with this. I've looked all over then net for a solution but I've found nothing. I remember having similar problems like this with older Macs because of postscript printing and I'm thinking this is the same problem but I don't know how to fix it. I've searched the forums as well but no joy.

I'm using the shiki colors theme from the repos right now. "Shiki-Noble" to be specific. When typing something into Firefox's URL bar the internet addresses have got a dark font color and are hard to read on the dark background. Here's a screenshot: FF.jpg
I've had similar issues with other themes and Firefox's URL bar before.

I have a dell inspireon 1501 with Ubuntu 10.04 on it. Sometimes but not always when I boot up I will see colored stripes on the screen that don't go away. The only way to get rid of them is too close the lid of the laptop then open it up again. After I open the lid the stripes go away. Any way to get RID of the stripes?
