This setting also affects Acrobat. In Acrobat, in the bookmarks pane text is black on black background, with this setting. Is there a quick way of turning this setting off or change it? There should be a way to stop the resources in that directory from being applied. GNOME is setting resources with wildcards that can affect non-GNOME applications in unknown ways. Additionally, the absense of a way to turn them off make this just plain rude! I don't want my GNOME colors to leak into some Motif apps that I use, and I can't do it without overrinding a enormous pile of resources in a local .Xresources. At least KDE has a "do not apply KDE colors to non-KDE applications" option, GNOME doesn't even have something like that in GConf... Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thank you! Closing per lack of response to previous request for information. This bug was originally filed against a much earlier version of Fedora Core, and significant changes have taken place since the last version for which this bug is confirmed. Note that FC3 and FC4 are supported by Fedora Legacy for security fixes only. Please install a still supported version and retest. If it still occurs on FC5 or FC6, please reopen and assign to the correct version. Otherwise, if this a security issue, please change the product to Fedora Legacy. Thanks, and we are sorry that we did not get to this bug earlier. |
