My desktop computer has only three functions: Stream internet radio, play videos, and serve as a backup method to get on the net when I hopelessly mess up my laptop. It ran Lucid until a few months ago when I made a fresh installation of Xubuntu 12.04. Unfortunately, there is a problem with Xubuntu 12.04 and the graphics (Geforce 6150 on the motherboard) causing intermittent lockups in X. A week ago I decided to try Mint 14 Xfce, which I ran for many days just from the live CD. No problems with lockups, so yesterday I installed it, wiping out Xubuntu.
But now I find numerous problems with it. For starters, in the terminal the "jjj@Devil10" is in Mint green. I can't stand that color, and besides it's really hard to read. I can't find any setting to change it, although I can change the color of the background and the rest of the text. I installed Gnome-terminal, but it also comes up with the same color. Must be a Mint thing. Is there a way to excise Mint green, or did I make a bad distro choice? Also, I can ask questions on the Xfce forums, but to do so I should say what version of Xfce I have. How can I find out what version of Xfce I have? _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
