[Bug 421261] [NEW] xterm background colour used to be black, now white

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xterm

Since upgrading my Acer Aspire One to Karmic, my xterms always have a
white background.

Looking at /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm-color, it appears it should be
black:

 ! Set the default text foreground and background colors.
*VT100*foreground: gray90
*VT100*background: black

But they're white just the same
