Hi,

I downloaded colorTheme.el.gz from the emacs wiki, but have a small 
problem.  For example, when I put

(require 'color-theme)
(color-theme-taming-mr-arneson)

in .emacs it only loads the foreground colours, not the background ones. 
OTOH "M-x color-theme-taming-mr-arneson" works fine.  Does anyone know 
why this could be?


Thanks,
Chris

Hi
Try to place (require 'color-theme) at the end of the .emacs file. May
be this is the problem? Cheers
Andrey

That didn't work.  One thing I've just noticed is that there's a black 
flash that wasn't there before adding any of the color-theme code.  When 
emacs starts it puts up a buffer or screen here with a logo and some 
info which changes every one or two secs.  When you focus on emacs it 
loads the scratch buffer. Could it be that the startup buffer is 
replacing some of the colours with it's own?  If so is there anyway to 
get round this or to load another default buffer?  .


The emacs version reads

GNU Emacs 21.2.1 (i386-mandrake-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars) 
of 2002-08-18 on kde.mandrakesoft.com, modified by Mandrake!


Thanks,
Chris

KDE messes with the colors.  Disable that.
