Description Andras Simon 2007-07-09 10:26:53 UTC 
Description of problem:

With the present /etc/lynx.lss, lynx starts with black foreground and background
color in xterm.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

lynx-2.8.6-3.fc7

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start lynx in an xterm.

  
Actual results:

Unreadable pages because of the same background and foreground colors.

Expected results:

Different background and foreground colors.


Additional info:

Starting lynx with
lynx -lss=/dev/null
is a workaround.

Also, colors are fine in a VT.

Hello,
could you please try to test whether this problem affects gnome-terminal too.
And please could you attach a snapshot of xterm lynx output here. Thanks.
Comment 8 Ivana Varekova 2007-07-12 12:23:48 UTC 
And could you attach here .lynxrc configure file from your home directory?

It does.

Will do in a moment. But just having

show_color=never

in .lynxrc is enough to reproduce the bug. And conversely, if I comment it out,
the foreground and background colors are different. So this is a temporary
workaround. Thanks!
