Summary: gnome terminal profile Tango hardly readable Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Factory Platform: x86 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: casualprogrammer@yahoo.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Beta-Customer
After "clean" network-install from factory the profile for the gnome-terminal is set to: "Use colors from system theme" and "Tango" under the "Edit/Current Profile" Colors tab.
Certain Items are hardly readable with that profile, the default setting should be set to "Linux Console" or something similar for better readability.

--- Comment #4 from Jakub Steiner jimmac@novell.com 2008-05-03 13:46:02 MST --- I believe the tango color scheme comes from upstream. At least I wasn't involved in this at all. Most of the color themes for me work only for inverted terminal colors (ie light text on dark background).

And defaulted to for: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=458115
Vincent?
/me suspects this is a wontfix because the tango theme colors are the tango theme colors.

--- Comment #6 from Vincent Untz vuntz@novell.com 2008-05-05 04:53:16 MST --- Well, we can change the default if we really want. It can be argued that a terminal is already very special, so not following the tango colors wouldn't be a big issue.
Or maybe it's possible to rework a bit the colors, but Jakub would know better than me in this case.
Note that I'm using my terminal with a dark background, and I suspect many people do the same... Maybe it makes sense to consider this change instead.

--- Comment #7 from Jakub Steiner jimmac@novell.com 2008-05-05 05:12:24 MST --- Dark background, light text sounds like a better default to me.

Most likely, the theme needs to specify the background color somehow.

--- Comment #10 from Casual J. Programmer casualprogrammer@gmail.com 2008-12-25 04:07:12 MST --- Still there in 11.1 final, it seems to be a problem for the "K" people as well (Bug 216549).
For me it's just a matter of finding the proper value for the background color to support the matching foreground. See attachments.
