the command area has a slightly different color, type 'ESC :' to start entering a command and you'll see that. Try gvim -u NONE -U NONE to check if the color changes when gvim is started without any config files. Nope, the color is still the same. (which is expected, since gvim -u NONE -U NONE is equivalent to moving my Vim dotfiles out of the way.) Wouldn't it look much better if the command area was the same color as the main buffer window? Is the upstream version gray too? Has Red Hat modified anything under /usr/share/vim? GVim on Windows http://www.softpedia.com/progScreenshots/GVim-Portable-Screenshot-50508.html white buffer, white command area GVim on Mac OS X http://homepage.mac.com/sao1/fink/screenshots/vim.html blue buffer, blue command area Scratch that.
There's definitely something wrong.
It's not the command line ("minibuffer") at the bottom.
It's more like there's a status bar that never does anything or it's allowing
space for a default GNOME panel that doesn't exist. (I'm running xfce.)

Yep, weirdness goes away if I run it under a GNOME session. This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 8 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-01-07. Fedora 8 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. When the gtk window height does not permit to draw a full line of text, the background color is showing. This problem does not seem to be RedHat related.
To change the background color, you can edit ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
@define-color YOUR_BACKGROUND_COLOR #rrggbb;
window#vim-main-window {
background-color: @YOUR_BACKGROUND_COLOR;
}
