You should be able to edit the gnome-terminal profile and set the colors. Start with the Edit menu pick, then Profile Preferences, then Colors, then pick your desired color theme. Otherwise I would start by looking at your X resources. Or perhaps just setting them explicltly. The contents depend upon what is in your ~/.Xresources file. That was standard prior to all of the current happy desktop way of doing things. You might still have some lint left behind. xrdb -q Bob
