Thanks, > I should add that my Apple Terminal is ssh'd to a Ubuntu 10.04.1 = workstation when this happens... so the problem may be related to the = linux configuration interacting with an 8-color terminal. I wish I could play with it and see what you are talking about and = experiment around some. What is TERM set to? You might be able to set it do something more = fitting to get better colors. Also, the Mac has X11. You could ssh with -Y over to the Ubuntu box and = start up emacs as an X11 client. Perry
