Hi, ( ...polishing my new root now... )
I got a somehow non-linear problem with my new root: My $TERM shows xterm-256color in both cases. I have no $HOME/.Xresources file installed. My $HOME is on a separate partition so it does not change between old and new root as it will be mounted on /home in both cases. So the configuration user-wise should change in either case. Starting vim (not gvim!) in urxvt lead to an monochrome editor with colorscheme "zenburn" -- which works fine on my old root. Using colorscheme "default" produces a colored output (but dont now, whether only a subset of colors is displayed and whether the colors are correct - i.e. whether what is displayed in red should be displayed in red) Manpages are monochrome. While googling I found this: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/6010/colored-man-pages-not-working-on-gentoo Test 2 and Test 3 of the first answer fail on my new AND my old root. According to the answer "sometyhing is wrong with my terminal settings" which is only a little bit more specific than "something is wrong" Hmmmm... It seems that I missed a certain step while setting up my new root.... I compared the output of "env" in both cases and found nothing really enlightening... How can I fix that? Thank you very much in advance for any help ! :) Cheers Meino
