I recently installed RH 7.1, and I've been trying to "fix" 
Emacs (ver. 20.7.1 that came with the distro).  I've used 
Red Hat before; and Emacs; the foreground color is a sort 
of yellow (Wheat?) for the text color, and the background 
is a dark green (DarkSlateGrey?)...this seems to be the 
"normal" way it should be.

However, when using KDE, the text, wherever there is text, 
is always "highlighted", black text on a white background.  
If I select some text with the mouse cursor, the white 
changes to blue, and the text stays black. The rest of the 
screen stays that DarkSlateGrey color, and the scrollbar is 
Wheat colored, with white around it.  Very strange!

I tried to figure out what was wrong, by messing around 
with the settings, and I also tried to see if it was due to 
the .emacs file. Nothing seems to affect it, and I thought 
I should just uninstall Emacs, and reinstall it.  This did 
nothing; the problem is still there.

HOWEVER, today I was checking out the other window 
managers, and I found that in all the others, such as Gnome 
and Enlightenment, Emacs works fine!  The problem isn't 
there--it only occurs in KDE!  This rules out a hardware 
problem, and also it isn't a problem with Emacs.

This is the only thing that seems to be wrong in 
KDE--everything else seems to be fine.  I can't figure this 
out!  Any ideas?

TIA,
