[Bug 202300] Re: light blue on white unreadable: ssh login
There is nothing bash can do about this. It does not even know what the background color is. gnome-terminal sets the background color and it also sets all the other colors. So, the original complaint is that the default colors of gnome-terminal provide suboptimal contrast to the default background, which is white. As a workaround for the bug submitter: You could try the other color schemes in gnome-terminal, like rxvt, which have more saturated colors. ** Changed in: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: bash = gnome-terminal Status: Incomplete = New ** Summary changed: - light blue on white unreadable: ssh login + default colors provide bad contrast to default background ** Description changed: - 1. installed ssh server on hardy - 2. using the standard terminal with white background to log into another server - 3. log into hardy again - 4. gives quite unreadable colors: light blue on white. see attachement. + The default colors of gnome-terminal are not optimally readable on a + white background. They should be more saturated. + + The original submitter especially did not like the light blue color, + which should be darker in his opinion. -- default colors provide bad contrast to default background https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202300 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 202300] Re: light blue on white unreadable: ssh login
you are right, it is working ok. its just the default colors which, imo, are eye unfriendly. a light background should have dark font colors, by default. -- light blue on white unreadable: ssh login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202300 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I don't realy understand what is going on here. You are logging into hardy from another machine? What is the other machine? ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: New = Incomplete -- light blue on white unreadable: ssh login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202300 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 202300] Re: light blue on white unreadable: ssh login
I do not understand your complain either. What you've posted is ls output of your home-directory with the default alias ls='ls --color=auto' set from ~/.bashrc, a setting as far as I'm concerned I do not want to see being disabled. The background of the terminal as well as the colors allowed for output is a theming issue, which can be adjusted, e.g. in gnome-terminal via the profile-settings. I do not think that the default blue used for directories is very eye-unfriendly, but this is a matter of taste. -- light blue on white unreadable: ssh login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202300 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
