[SOLVED] weird color escapes

I'm using Konsole in XFCE and every now and then I get the following output. The text should be colored, and sometimes it is, but annoyingly often, it is not. Has anyone experienced this before? If so, is there a solution?

Desktop in weird colors [SOLVED]

I'm using arch+xfce and my desktop is in all weird colors. I don't know if it's an XFCE thing or x.org.
This is how it looks: http://imgur.com/kQVAZ.png
I have xf86-video-intel installed.
Please advise.

That's funny. If you open the wallpaper in an image viewer such as Geeqie does it look correct?
What color depth is the root window using? It should be 24 bpp. I think you can check it by running "xwininfo" and then clicking on the desktop.
Other than that I think I'm out of ideas.

Second monitor displays weird colors

Hi there,
Yesterday I bought a Displayport to HDMI adapter (Mini DisplayPort Male - HDMI female) for my MacBook Pro 15" (Late 2011 version). I use this to connect my MacBook Pro to my Philips 32" television. Everything has been set up (I've adjusted the resolution of the TV to 1080p and put my refresh rate to 50 hz since my TV doesn't support 60 hz). But once in every 5 - 15 minutes or so, my screen turns green for a brief second and suddenly my background or whatever is on my second monitor turns in to weird colors. Sometimes it takes about 2 or 3 seconds and it switches back to how it normally was, but sometimes it takes way longer. I don't mirror my screen, I use it as a second display. But I can't figure out why the screen it switching betweens there colors and don't know how to fix it. I've looked it up on the internet, but couldn't find anything useful. So I hope you guys could help me with this.
Thanks in advance.

Dual Monitor displays weird colors

New iMac display problem(?) - weird colors and grain

Hello,
I'm a fresh mac user, made the switch this monday (August 27th) when my 24" iMac 2.4GHz C2D arrived. After using it for a while, I noticed a handful of dead pixels, and a semi-bright green stuck one. I thought I'd wait and see how disturbing I would find them before raising an issue about them.
Well, yesterday I decided to make my first backup of the whole system to my external 500GB Lacie drive (connected with FW800) using Super Duper!, which to my understanding is a reasonably sturdy and reliable backup application.
During the first backup iteration I started to notice some alterations in color in the top middle part of the display. I then returned to whatever I was doing (not on the mac, I had no other applications running, just Super Duper!), and after a while took another look at the display. The weird colored area had expanded, and the whole display had become somewhat grainy. Also, the backup process had slowed down quite a bit (from ~30MB/s to ~7-8MB/s).
So I cancelled the backup operation and logged out and back in again. No change. Then I restarted the whole system, which booted just fine, with none of the aforementioned problems. Even the second backup iteration went without problems.
Still, it's a new (and with my budget, quite expensive) computer, and if I get this kind of problem during the first week, I cannot continue using it happily in the fear of these problems reoccurring time and again.
I took a couple of pictures of this, one during and one after the problem. The quality of these are quite lousy, they're taken with my Nokia 9500 Communicator.
During the problem:
http://iki.fi/aita/imac/01notok.jpg
After rebooting:
http://iki.fi/aita/imac/02_ok.jpg
The images are taken in the same light conditions, but from slightly different viewing points. Note: The first image does not present reflections, it's how the screen looked (actually, in real life it looked somewhat worse)
What do you think?
Could this be a driver related issue or have I received bad hardware?
My drivers and Apple software should be up to date (at least OS X informs me that everything is, and I haven't found newer graphics drivers anywhere).
If anyone has had the same or related problems or know how I should proceed with this matter, I would be grateful.
Thank you in advance!

A few people, myself included, have experienced the same thing. Check these threads: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1082181&tstart=15

So far the only fix suggested has been to call apple and get a replacement. I'm still.....still waiting for mine to make it slowly across the ocean from China, so I don't know how the new one is working. I'd call Apple and request a new one.

IPad Air running 8.2 - one of the two cameras shows very weird colors.

This started a couple weeks ago. The outward camera view shows very weird colors. I have looked on line for a solution and found a reference that said the 'live camera filter is stilled turned on' but I don't think live filters exist any more. ive tried everything I can think of. Attached is a screen shot when using the camera.
TIA

Try the standard troubleshooting steps in this order:
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds). No data will be lost.
Restore: Connect your device to iTunes on your computer, backup, and then select Restore to Factory.
See here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201252
If none of these work your device may have developed a hardware problem. Contact Apple Support: http://www.apple.com/contact/

The new nvidia drivers, weird color blending

i tried all the nvidia drivers, but all what comes after the 53.3 have a weird color blending problem, and i can't fix it.
the problem is visibale if u r looking to an image with gradient color, u'll c it as if it's not correctly blended, and this goes weird when u work with photo editing and retouching an image, u'll think that ur work is bad.
i got to fix the prob, temporaly , by accessing the advanced tab of timing, if i just edit any number the colors go ok, once i press ok and apply, everything remain as the original, and the problem is here again.
do u have anysuggestions plz, anyhelp will be much appreciated.

man, what software are u talking about (did i mentioned any test software?)
the problem i'm facing is the color blending in all drivers after 53.3 is not showing right, the gradient still showed degrade and not fully blended, as if u turn ur display to 24 bit, instead of 32bit, but actually the result i get is like the image is displayed at 28 bit
u can't know what i'm talking about , but if u try it by urself, just open an image in photoshop or any editing application, choose any image that have a gradient shown well, and c it, u'll notice that gradient is not fully smooth, it's kind of steped, and to b sure, fill a scratch background by the linear gradient tool (black, white) and c the disaster, there is no smooth intermediate grey section, u'll c steped.
i hope it's clear dude.

Opening mov files - weird color patterns + freeze

Hi,
Suddenly when opening mov files, quicktime shows weird colors instead of a video. It also takes a long time to open, and quicktime then hangs. I don't know what I installed that could have caused the problem. I tried reinstalling but that doesn't help.
I use vegas as video editor, and there I can still import quicktime movies without problems.
It used to work before on my xp64pro!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
wouter

it might be worth checking to see if you can just get away with disabling Direct3D accleration on the PC. it's also probably worth checking your video drivers too.
the following document has some nice pointers in those regards. (iTunes uses QuickTime for video playback, so the same basic troubleshooting techniques apply.)

Monitor gets with weird color

Hi,
It just happened, I was working with Final Cut, I left the laptop while it was exporting a file to convert into a QT . Later I went to the computer and the monitor had a weird color something like decolored (instead of gray it was violet).
Does anybody has an idea about it?

Could be video chipset issues due to overheating, especially since it went away after a short rest. When working with a CPU-intensive program like FCP, you should make sure the case bottom and the exhaust vent under the hinge on the back edge are unobstructed. They are critical to good cooling. If you use the PB with an external monitor with the lid closed, that also runs up temps. You may wish to consider a laptop cooler to help move air across the case bottom.
A Dashboard widget like this:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/status/istatpro.html
will let you monitor some temps on your PowerBook.

[solved, I suppose] weird colors when using yaourt-git with screen

This happens only when using yaourt-git in screen: http://loka.pl/outgoing/yaourt_colors.png
Is it just me? I tried changing all the color settings in yaourtrc but I can only "fix" it by disabling color entirely.

It looks like it's impossible to get italics working in screen. I made a patch for yaourt-git to get rid of the problem, though this is really a pretty crude hack that simply disables italics when yaourt is used inside screen:

[SOLVED] urxvt colors and moc theme

Hello!
I am a KDE user and usually i am using Konsole. For some applications (like htop and moc) i use urxvt (patched version from AUR). The problem is in colors. When i launch moc in Konsole the theme colours are right but not in urxvt too. That happens with htop also. URxvt doesn't follow theme backrground color (uses its own) and foreground colors too.

Moc config file:
# This is a configuration file for the MOC player. It should be named
# 'config' and placed in the ~/.moc directory. As this file can specify
# commands which invoke other applications, MOC will refuse to start if it
# is not owned by either root or the current user, or if it is writable by
# anyone other than its owner. All options are given with their default
# values, and therefore commented.
# Comments begin with '#'.
# You can use quotes and escape ('\') in parameters.
# You can have variable values substituted by enclosing the variable name
# as "${...}". (This only applies to the portion of the option following
# the ' ='.) Variables are substituted first from the environment then,
# if not found, from the configuration options. (Note that the value of
# a configuration option substituted is that which it has at the time the
# substitution variable is encountered.) If there is a naming conflict
# between an environment and configuration variable, you may be able to
# resolve it by using lowercase as the environment variable matches are
# case-sensitive whereas the configuration variables are not.
# You can also use the form "${...:-...}" where the value in the second
# position will be substituted if the variable name given in the first
# position is unset or null.
# So, for example:
# MusicDir = /music/${USER:-public}
# Fastdir1 = ${MusicDir}/mp3/rock
# Fastdir2 = ${MusicDir}/mp3/electronic
# Fastdir3 = ${MusicDir}/mp3/rap
# Fastdir4 = ${MusicDir}/mp3/etc
# Variable names are limited to those accepted by the BASH shell; that
# is, those comprising the upper- and lowercase ASCII characters, digits
# and the underscore.
# If you need to use the "${" sequence for any other purpose, write "$${"
# and it will be replaced by "${" and not treated as a substitution.
# Some options take lists of strings as their values. The strings are
# separated by colons. Additional strings can be appended to the list
# using "+ =" in place of a plain "=" to assign the value. For an example,
# see the XTerms option.
# You can override any configuration option when you run MOC using the
# '-O' command line option:
# mocp -O AutoNext =no -O messagelingertime=1 -O XTerms+=xxt:xwt
# This command line option can be repeated as many times as needed and
# the configuration option name is not case sensitive. (Note that MOC
# does not perform variable substitution on the value of such overridden
# configuration options.) Most option values are set before the
# configuration file is processed (which allows the new values to be
# picked up by substitutions), however list-valued options are overridden
# afterwards (which gives the choice of whether the configured values are
# replaced or added to).
# Remember that the client and server are separate processes and the
# server will retain the configuration values formed from the environment
# within which it was originally started.

#MusicDir = "My folder"

# PreferredDecoders allows you to specify which decoder should be used
# for any given audio format. It is a colon-separated list in which
# each entry is of the general form 'code(decoders)', where 'code'
# identifies the audio format and 'decoders' is a comma-separated list
# of decoders in order of preference.
# The audio format identifier may be either a filename extension or a
# MIME media type. If the latter, the format is 'type/subtype' (e.g.,
# 'audio/flac'). Because different systems may give different MIME
# media types, any 'x-' prefix of the subtype is ignored both here and
# in the actual file MIME type (so all combinations of 'audio/flac' and
# 'audio/x-flac' match each other).
# For Internet streams the matching is done on MIME media type and on
# actual content. For files the matches are made on MIME media type
# (if the 'UseMimeMagic' option is set) and on filename extension. The
# MIME media type of a file is not determined until the first entry for
# MIME is encountered in the list.
# The matching is done in the order of appearance in the list with any
# entries added from the command line being matched before those listed
# here. Therefore, if you place all filename extension entries before
# all MIME entries you will speed up MOC's processing of directories
# (which could be significant for remote file systems).
# The decoder list may be empty, in which case no decoders will be used
# for files (and files with that audio format ignored) while Internet
# streams will be assessed on the actual content. Any decoder position
# may contain an asterisk, in which case any decoder not otherwise listed
# which can handle the audio format will be used. It is not an error to
# list the same decoder twice, but neither does it make sense to do so.
# If you have a mix of audio and non-audio files in your directories, you
# may wish to include entries at top of the list which ignore non-audio
# files by extension.
# In summary, the PreferredDecoders option provides fine control over the
# type of matching which is performed (filename extension, MIME media
# type and streamed media content) and which decoder(s) (if any) are used
# based on the option's list entries and their ordering.
# Examples: aac(aac,ffmpeg) first try FAAD2 for AACs then FFmpeg
# mp3() ignore MP3 files
# wav(*,sndfile) use sndfile for WAV as a last resort
# ogg(vorbis,*):flac(flac,*) try Xiph decoders first
# ogg():audio/ogg() ignore OGG files, and
# force Internet selection by content
# gz():html() ignore some non-audio files
# Any unspecified audio formats default to trying all decoders.
# Any unknown (or misspelt) drivers are ignored.
# All names are case insensitive.
# The default setting reflects the historical situation modified by
# the experience of users.
#PreferredDecoders = aac(aac,ffmpeg):m4a(ffmpeg)
#PreferredDecoders += mpc(musepack,*,ffmpeg):mpc8(musepack,*,ffmpeg)
#PreferredDecoders += sid(sidplay2):mus(sidplay2)
#PreferredDecoders += wav(sndfile,*,ffmpeg)
#PreferredDecoders += wv(wavpack,*,ffmpeg)
#PreferredDecoders += audio/aac(aac):audio/aacp(aac):audio/m4a(ffmpeg)
#PreferredDecoders += audio/wav(sndfile,*)
# The following PreferredDecoders attempt to handle the ambiguity surrounding
# container types such as OGG for files. The first two entries will force
# a local file to the correct decoder (assuming the .ogg file contains Vorbis
# audio), while the MIME media types will cause Internet audio streams to
# be assessed on content (which may be either Vorbis or Speex).
#PreferredDecoders += ogg(vorbis,ffmpeg):oga(vorbis,ffmpeg):ogv(ffmpeg)

# Which resampling method to use. There are a few methods of resampling
# sound supported by libresamplerate. The default is 'Linear') which is
# also the fastest. A better description can be found at:
# http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsamplerate/api_misc.html#Converters
# but briefly, the following methods are based on bandlimited interpolation
# and are higher quality, but also slower:
# SincBestQuality - really slow (I know you probably have an xx GHz
# processor, but it's still not enough to not see
# this in the top output :) The worst case
# Signal-to-Noise Ratio is 97dB.
# SincMediumQuality - much faster.
# SincFastest - the fastest bandlimited interpolation.
# And these are lower quality, but much faster methods:
# ZeroOrderHold - really poor quality, but it's really fast.
# Linear - a bit better and a bit slower.
#ResampleMethod = Linear
# Always use this sample rate (in Hz) when opening the audio device (and
# resample the sound if necessary). When set to 0 the device is opened
# with the file's rate.
#ForceSampleRate = 0
# By default, even if the sound card reports that it can output 24bit samples
# MOC converts 24bit PCM to 16bit. Setting this option to 'yes' allows MOC
# to use 24bit output. (The MP3 decoder, for example, uses this format.)
# This is disabled by default because there were reports that it prevents
# MP3 files from playing on some soundcards.
#Allow24bitOutput = no
# Use realtime priority for output buffer thread. This will prevent gaps
# while playing even with heavy load. The user who runs MOC must have
# permissions to set such a priority. This could be dangerous, because it
# is possible that a bug in MOC will freeze your computer.
#UseRealtimePriority = no
# The number of audio files for which MOC will cache tags. When this limit
# is reached, file tags are discarded on a least recently used basis (with
# one second resolution). You can disable the cache by giving it a size of
# zero. Note that if you decrease the cache size below the number of items
# currently in the cache, the number will not decrease immediately (if at
# all).
#TagsCacheSize = 256
# Number items in the playlist.
#PlaylistNumbering = yes
# Main window layouts can be configured. You can change the position and
# size of the menus (directory and playlist). You have three layouts and
# can switch between then using the 'l' key (standard mapping). By default,
# only two layouts are configured.
# The format is as follows:
# - Each layout is described as a list of menu entries.
# - Each menu entry is of the form:
# menu(position_x, position_y, width, height)
# where 'menu' is either 'directory' or 'playlist'.
# - The parameters define position and size of the menu. They can
# be absolute numbers (like 10) or a percentage of the screen size
# (like 45%).
# - 'width' and 'height' can have also value of 'FILL' which means
# fill the screen from the menu's position to the border.
# - Menus may overlap.
# You must describe at least one menu (default is to fill the whole window).
# There must be at least one layout (Layout1) defined; others can be empty.
# Example: Layout1 = playlist(50%,50%,50%,50%)
# Layout2 = ""
# Layout3 = ""
# Just one layout, the directory will occupy the whole
# screen, the playlist will have 1/4 of the screen size
# and be positioned at lower right corner. (Note that
# because the playlist will be hidden by the directory
# you will have to use the TAB key to make the playlist
# visible.)
# Example: Layout1 = playlist(0,0,100%,10):directory(0,10,100%,FILL)
# The screen is split into two parts: playlist at the top
# and the directory menu at the bottom. Playlist will
# occupy 10 lines and the directory menu the rest.
#Layout1 = directory(0,0,50%,100%):playlist(50%,0,FILL,100%)
#Layout2 = directory(0,0,100%,100%):playlist(0,0,100%,100%)
#Layout3 = ""
# When the song changes, should the menu be scrolled so that the currently
# played file is visible?
#FollowPlayedFile = yes
# What to do if the interface was started and the server is already playing
# something from the playlist? If CanStartInPlaylist is set to 'yes', the
# interface will switch to the playlist. When set to 'no' it will start
# from the last directory.

3d3d3d is for red but you have a blackish and color2 is for green but you have it white the rest should be the default colors. it uses the same colors only it changes the vairiant of the color you choice there or normally moc uses colors such as green blue and such which will call your console colors for those respective fields I know moc has /user/share/moc/themes/ that you can edit or make your own for instance copy one and edit it. I think htop uses the same color count which is 8 but with so green will be white when you use urxvt. 8 for normal colors 16 for bright dark and urxvt is 256 which is 16 but can use any of the 256 colors for 16.
just to clarify you have commented out your colors 4-15 and your green and red is weird, and htop aswell as moc is 8 bit. moc theme_yellow_red is default for background so it will use urxvts background
Haahaha, that is simple. And it works!!!
I didn't bother with commenting that because i thought they are not applied. Anyway, thanks man. My urxvt terminal si grateful to you and your thorough explanation. SOLVED!

Toddler playing - now display is screwy - black=white, weird colors

my husband let our 2 year old play around with our ibook today. when i got home, the display seems to be reversed - all white is displayed as black, etc.
when restarting, color is fine (it gives you a glimsp of our desktop in perfectly normal colors, then when the system starts up, it goes to this weird saturated thing. i've zapped the PRAM, but can't think of everything else. done the display preferences, etc.
any help appreciated.

Maybe this helps:

Video displays weird colors with normal sound

I recently downloaded the newest version of quicktime (itunes said it was required) and also service pack 2 because that was required for the newest quicktime, but now when I play videos, they are playing (I can hear the sound), but the video is just a weird display of colors and shapes.

Open the QuickTime Control Panel / Advanced tab and check the box for "Safe mode".
Quit and relaunch QuickTime Player and try the files again.

QT 7.6.6 On XP plays mp4 with weird color

MP4 plays with correct color in Windows media and other video playback. In QT there is an overall bluish cast to the videos. I've uninstalled and reinstalled QT but did not fix the problem. I recently updated to itunes 9.2. I think on my W/7 system it was suggested to run some apple uninstaller program to clean things out and start fresh. I didn't save it. I'm open to suggestions. Thanks

Thanks for that suggestion. I marked this as answered since it is at least partially answered. My video now runs with the correct colors. I updated directx on my xp system but if I leave QT safe mode, the problem continues. I was hoping a directx update might solve the problem. So I still have some work to do to figure why QT works on my W7 system but not on the XP. THX

IPod stops playing and gives apple symbol with weird colors.

My IPod was in my pocket for only about 2 minutes and it stopped playing music and gave me a weird apple symbol and blue with white shading every where like it encountered a virus or something. It goes back shortly after but it keeps happening. Is this a known issue with the newer IPod Classic? Do I have to restore my IPod? I have had this IPod for about a year. Any ideas of what is going on??

Maybe try restoring your ipod. Some of the files could have become corrupted.
Hope this helps...
If any answer helps or solves your problem, please mark the post that helped accordingly, it provides an incentive for posters here to try and help and gives others a quicker way of finding solutions faster, thank you
