Do you run xterm on a different machine than your desktop?
It's all on one and the same laptop for one and the same user.

The first two are definitely ignored, the third ought to work, I think.
For me, it doesn't (see my message from Sat, 20 Jul 2019 17:36:27 +0300).
However, I don't use Gnome and the only Wayland experience I ever had> was with
Weston. I never used Weston. Right now: $ echo $GDMSESSION gnome
There will be nobody who tracks the issue if it remains assigned to xterm, so that point is rather moot. You could file a wishlist bug for mutter instead and link to the Gnome gitlab issue I gave you.
I won't be able to write a *good* bug report or a wishlist issue for mutter, since it's not a user-level application that I interact with directly: I know nothing about mutter. However, I may reassign the current bug report there. 20.07.2019, 19:32, Sven Joachim <svenj...@gmx.de>On 2019-07-20 19:56 +0300, Md Ayquassar wrote: > So, would > > $ cat .Xdefaults > UXTerm*reverseVideo: true > > and a reboot be sufficient?

There will be nobody who tracks the issue if it remains assigned to xterm, so that point is rather moot. You could file a wishlist bug for mutter instead and link to the Gnome gitlab issue I gave you. BTW, instead of reverseVideo you may want to set the Foreground and Background resources. Cheers, Sven
