Hi Zafar,

True to Ur words,I did come across this prob'.Just edit XF86Config file(U've to be 
root to do this & after keeping a backup) as

#mcedit /etc/X11/XF86Config  ( OR by any editor U like) 

Now,If U've SIS6215c(U've not mentioned Ur Display Card,so I'll assume this),search
for the string "sis" & to that block of lines,add the following lines:
        Option        "no_accel"
        Option        "no_bitblt"       
If this doesn't work, U better mention Ur configuration next time.
But before this,U must read the archieves & HOWTOs,in this case,
/usr/doc/HOWTO/XFree86-*-HOWTOs .

Hi there,
    Hope someone has already solved this problem before. I have installed
Linux redhat 6.1 from PCQuest (Gnome workstation).
- ---> The Gnome Terminal program run in X-windows displays a window in
which the text is not visible, both the typed and the output text. All it shows is
a background silver color. I have tried changing color configuration to no avail.
The text appears normally when i drag another window on top of terminal window.
Also this is the case in the text editors like the notepad in Gnome.
Can someone help me, please?
Sincerely,
Zafar
