Urxvt: Use same colors as in virtual console?

How can I find out the color palette of the colors of the Linux virtual console?
I would like to use them for urxvt, the colors of which currently are a bit hard to read (e.g. directory names shown by ls):
URxvt*background: black
URxvt*foreground: white
URxvt*color0: black
URxvt*color1: red3
URxvt*color2: green3
URxvt*color3: yellow3
URxvt*color4: blue2
URxvt*color5: magenta3
URxvt*color6: cyan3
URxvt*color7: gray90
URxvt*color8: grey50
URxvt*color9: red
URxvt*color10: green
URxvt*color11: yellow
URxvt*color12: blue
URxvt*color13: magenta
URxvt*color14: cyan
URxvt*color15: white

What I did in the end:
Got the colors printed on screen, using Stefano Palazzo’s script, one of many available on the web.
Took a screenshot.
Used a color picker in a graphics application.
Colors are (rounding errors corrected):
URxvt*background: #000000
URxvt*foreground: #AAAAAA
URxvt*color0: #000000
URxvt*color1: #AA0000
URxvt*color2: #00AA00
URxvt*color3: #AA5500
URxvt*color4: #0000AA
URxvt*color5: #AA00AA
URxvt*color6: #00AAAA
URxvt*color7: #AAAAAA
URxvt*color8: #555555
URxvt*color9: #FF5555
URxvt*color10: #55FF55
URxvt*color11: #FFFF55
URxvt*color12: #5555FF
URxvt*color13: #FF55FF
URxvt*color14: #55FFFF
URxvt*color15: #FFFFFF

Feature request - use same colors for joined tables

I brought two datasets into Power Map. Both have a shared segmentation dimension (joined in Power Pivot). Power Map doesn't pay attention to the fact that the tables are joined and does not use the same series colors. I have to manually adjust all
the colors (~2 dozen segments) which is painful and should not be necessary. Power Map should be smart and automatically use the same colors.

You are more likely to

[solved] Vim: console and urxvt have different colors

Well, as you can see, vim in console (vc/1) and in urxvt has different colors:
I'd like to have the same colors of console in urxvt (and not the opposite), is there a way?
I don't know from where the colors of urxvt come from. That blue with which is written '#include' and that green/cyan with which is written 'int' aren't even in my .Xdefaults.
TIA

I have been having a issue with getting the colors on my monitor to match the colors fro my print lab. I now have the monitor calibrated to match the prints but when I open elements it doesn't use the same colors. If i have it use the calibrated profile by changing the color management settings, the color picker no longer shows true white or black. How do I get elements 12 to honor the new calibrated settings?

Ok so I've done what you said and this is what it's come back ....
I don't know that these are the errors , but they're the things which don't look right ...
Throughout the shut down there is a recurring line ;
It says ;
Com.apple.launchd 1 0x100600e70.anonymous.unmount 301 PID still valid
Then there are 2 more which I think are related ;
Com.apple.securityd 29 PID job has I overstayed its welcome , forcing removal.
Then the same with fseventd 48 and diskarbitrationd 13
Oh and on Launchd1 : System : stray anonymous job at shut down : PID 301 PPID13 PGID 13 unmount...
Then the last process says "about to call: reboot (RB_AUTOBOOT).
Continuing...
And stops ...
Hope this means something to you ... Thanks again for your help so far :-)

Why are printer managed color prints different from Photoshop managed color prints using the same color profile?.

I'm using Photoshop 13.0.1, Windows 7, to print images using custom color profiles made with an XRite colorimeter. However, when I print the image using Printer Manages Color, it is not the same as Photoshop Manages the colors and selecting the Canon ICC profile that (Canon 7200 MP2) that is the same as the printer managed settings. Why are these prints not the same if the same color profile is being accessed??

Hi WA Veghe,
>First: DO synchronize, makes sure you have the same profile settings and color mange settings.
I don't seem to be able to synchronize between CS4 (Photoshop) and CS3 (Indesign).
It seems I have to do without synchronizing..
>I do not seem to find HOW you are diplaying images on you screen: with Soft proofing?
What happens if you soft proof in Photoshop and InDesign on screen: View > Proof colors. Do you proof with the same profiles, both simulate paper and black on?
I can simulate Proof Colors (working CMYK), but not simulate Paper, both in Indesign and Photoshop.
Problem is: SAME settings in Photoshop and Indesign BUT the image displayed in Photoshop is brighter and more saturated.
So which image should I correct after?
thanks for all help

Using search pages (i.e. Google) how can I get a different color on a link (website) that I have previously visited? It used to work that way, but now every link is the same color.

I use Firefox 4.0.1 & Windows 7 Home Premium Edition. In the Options/Contents/Color setting I have the "Allow Pages To Use Their Own Colors" box checked. I tried checking "Use System Colors" with 2 different colors selected for Unvisited Links & Visited Links, but it does not work, & in addition, the Use System Colors messes up my normal view(s). I just want to be able to differentiate between Visited & Unvisited Links. Thank you.

Hi,
Agree with Holger, I check on my Lync Windows Store app and can't find the meeting URL as well.

Font corruption in virtual consoles

Not sure where to put this, so it goes here.
I am currently a victim of font/screen corruption in the virtual consoles (probably not X, not sure, haven't installed a WM/DE yet). I am using a 1680x1050 resolution (8bit color) with the vesafb driver for the framebuffer (have installed proprietary nvidia drivers for X). This is my native resolution, and my attempt to get a decent console environment without KMS, which the proprietary nvidia drivers do not allow (or so I have read). This works fine, the problem arises when I choose a large font to compensate for the larger resolution.
Most fonts above 16px seem to cause corruption. I really like the Terminus font (ter-120b in particular), but it causes corruption. If I go down to ter-116b, it works fine. For some reason, ter-132b works fine too, guess it's got something to do with 16px+16px=32px. This is too large, though, so I can't use it. I have also tried other fonts than Terminus (One called sun12x22 (or sth like that), for example) with the same results. All fonts greater than 16px seem to cause corruption (unless they are as large as 32px). Note that the ter-XXXn fonts (e.g. ter-120n) also cause corruption.
When I say "corruption" I mean pixels not being redrawn properly, "left-over" pixels. It is easily reproducible by typing something in the terminal, moving the cursor a few characters back (1 or more), and pressing the "delete" button to delete the character to the right of the cursor. The character is not properly deleted on screen, some of the pixels are left. Note that this happens in editors like nano/vim as well.
I have tried different resolutions and framebuffer settings (ywrap, redraw, mtrr and what not), but have narrowed it down to a font problem as corruption occurs even with default settings/resolution.
Any suggestions? Know what causes this? Workarounds/fixes?
In worst case I'll just down the resolution until a 16px font is okay, but it would be a shame not to get the native resolution.
EDIT: Oh, and my GPU is a nvidia GTX260 (the 216 core version)

I've seen corruption like this with a lot of cairo apps because the text to be rendered is sent to a buggy EXA driver. Does text look better if you turn off EXA acceleration?

How can I get Firefox to load "Background" images in Windows 7(32 Bit)? They will not load in Windows 7 Professional but will load in XP Virtual console when I installed Firefox there. How do I get it to load properly in the normal Windows 7 window?

I have a Toshiba laptop Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU Q740 @1.73GHz 1.73 GHz , 4.00 GB RAM, 32-bit Operating system
I noticed the problem after installing Firefox 4.0.1, but by uninstalling and reinstalling found it was also a problem with the previous version.
There are no boxes displayed on this form, but on my XP desktop computer, they are displayed. I have both open so I know where to type.
I installed Firefox on the XP virtual console on this machine and it worked fine, but not using Windows 7.
None of the posted suggestions for similar questions on this forum worked.

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Windows Accessibility settings.

No dead keys in Xorg, strange dead keys in virtual consoles

Without touching my configs I'm having issues with the dead keys on my german keyboard:
In applications under Xorg they are simply inactive (as if choosing a nodeadkeys-layout). In virtual consoles there is no character displayed when I double-tap a dead key (e.g. '~'), but it is indeed displayed if I press some other key afterwards. Strange thing here is that it is not combined with the second one like in the deadkeys-layout (e.g. à for pressing ` and then 'a').
I do my Xorg layout via /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/25-evdev.conf:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Logitech Illuminated Keyboard"
MatchProduct "Logitech Illuminated Keyboard"
Driver "evdev"
Option "XkbLayout" "de"
Option "XkbOptions" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
EndSection
According to /var/log/Xorg.0.log the layout seems to be set correctly:
[ 39.725] (**) evdev: Logitech Logitech Illuminated Keyboard: Device: "/dev/input/event2"
[ 39.725] (--) evdev: Logitech Logitech Illuminated Keyboard: Vendor 0x46d Product 0xc318
[ 39.725] (--) evdev: Logitech Logitech Illuminated Keyboard: Found keys
[ 39.725] (II) evdev: Logitech Logitech Illuminated Keyboard: Configuring as keyboard
[ 39.725] (**) Option "config_info" "udev:/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb4/4-1/4-1.3/4-1.3:1.0/input/input2/event2"
[ 39.725] (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Logitech Logitech Illuminated Keyboard" (type: KEYBOARD, id 10)
[ 39.725] (**) Option "xkb_rules" "evdev"
[ 39.725] (**) Option "xkb_model" "evdev"
[ 39.725] (**) Option "xkb_layout" "de"
[ 39.725] (**) Option "xkb_options" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
I'm using an up-to-date pure-systemd install.
Any suggestions how to trace down the issue?
Thanks in advance,
lynix

I’ve the same behavior as you in virtual console, and I really don’t know why.
For Xorg, check your .XCompose (recently I’ve a problem with a line only recognized by Xorg months later after I add it) or the Compose file of your locale in
/usr/share/X11/locale/$your_locale.UTF-8/Compose
However it seems en_US.UTF-8/Compose is used for many western languages (at least that seems to be the case for french).

Blank Virtual Consoles

I have a similar problem to https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 1#p1245351 . Once I start X, my virtual consoles become invisible, though I can access them by typing blindly.
I have used systemd for a long time. When I boot my virtual console appears just fine. I get the usual booting messages. It switches to VT7 to run X, as I use lxdm.
My mouse freezes briefly now and again, which could be part of the problem.
I am running the nvidia driver for a GT630.
Either from lxdm, or from my running X session, switching to VT1-6 causes my monitor to go into sleep mode. If I type blindly, I can login. When I switch back to VT7, X reappears. When I reboot/shutdown, my terminals also don't reappear.
I tried setterm, xset, and also the xscreen saver. No settings will prevent the blanking, which seems more terminal mode/resolution related.
I tried sudo xset -dpms; xset s off and also turning off DPMS for xscreensaver (apparently separate need) via xscreensaver-demo (reloading the daemon). There was no luck with doing either or both of these at the same time. I looked through all of nvidia's settings in Xorg.conf and found "Option DPMS" for my Monitor 0, so I commented that out. No luck there, either. I also tried typing setterm commands blindly, to no avail.
Blindly typing fbset won't work either. It stubbornly stays in "1024x768-76". [Using a script to set and retrieve blindly.]
Things stopped working when I put arch on a new computer with a new monitor. I am using the nvidia driver:
Section "Monitor"
# HorizSync source: edid, VertRefresh source: edid
Identifier "Monitor0"
VendorName "Unknown"
ModelName "LG Electronics IPS235"
HorizSync 30.0 - 83.0
VertRefresh 56.0 - 61.0
Option "DPMS"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Device1"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
BoardName "GeForce GT 630"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Screen 1
EndSection

For informational purposes, I still have this issue, and I think it is KMS related. Apparently the nvidia propietary drivers use their own similar method, instead. My card also has issues with the nouveau driver and detecting KMS (X logs report nouveau complains there is no KMS). I also tried the very latest install media. This insists on loading nouveau, and I get blanking and powersaving unless I set the kernel parameter for nomodeset. So, even trying to boot in the FB console will cause blanking now. (It also happens at least back to 2013 install media, I have one I tried.)
(Of course, I don't do things like vga=xxx or anything that would turn KMS off with regards to any X or frame buffer problems.)
LATER: I just went to http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/CodeNames/. I have a GK107 GeForce GT 630 OEM. This is a weird little OEM card nvidia created, and it doesn't fit on the matrix anywhere, amongst all the other 630's, being a Kepler. I believe the 630M Fermi is more common, and all the 630's except one are Fermi's. My Kepler version isn't there, it seems, though a GK208 is listed as the sole GT 630 Kepler.
So, it is likely that if you have a card like mine, you are out of luck running nouveau, and may even have blank screens on booting from the official install media. (Use nomodeset.)
(I do have built-in motherboard graphics. Disabling that doesn't help: ie. choose PCIe in the UEFI BIOS. But maybe there is an oddity there causing my problem.)

Virtual consoles question

hi, I'm aware this is a probably dumb question but ...
in my installation there are only 7 VC (virtual console), trying to launch gdm and slim to login into 2 different windows manager (I'm experimenting with compiz fusion standalone and sometimes I need to see how openbox works in the same condition) happened the warning/error message "VC7 is already in use, do you want to use another VC? yes/no" (this is not the exact message) I tried to launch it on VC8 but on that VC I have a "black screen with a flashing underscore" where I cannot write nothing.
now my question is, is it possible to have more X session opened in more than one virtual console (and so enable more than 7 VC)?
I'm running a 1 year old installation of arch linux so it's possible I broke something or something has been modified in new installers..
Thanks for your help

nitrogen is an application to draw a wallpaper when using only a window manager.
Thanks for the "DISPLAY=:1" tip, I tried it but unfortunately it doesn't solve my ""problem"" (actually )
I'll play some more with it tomorrow..
anyway,in case someone know how nitrogen works, running "DISPLAY=:1 nitrogen --restore" or "nitrogen --restore" I get:
"Couldn't find group for :1.0."
"Could not get bg info"
p.s. it doesn't work with openbox too so it's not compiz standalone related
Thanks in advance

How can I get Colorful Tabs to use separate colors for 2 different gmail accounts?

Running Firefox 29.0.1 on iMac OSX 10.9.3. I have multiple Google accounts: 2 gmail accounts and 1 Google Calendar. The Add-on Colorful Tabs will allow me to choose a color for one gmail account , but it also uses that same color for the other gmail account. How can I get different colors on 2 different gmail accounts?
Also, Colorful Tabs is also doing the same thing for my homepage (google.com) and my google calendar. How can I get different colors on these 2?

I personally use "Fabtabs" for my mozilla FireFox.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/fabtabs/
This add-on doesn't have any issues like that when I use it.

How can I use the color adjustments interface that shows up for camera RAW on jpeg files?

How can I use the color adjustments interface that shows up for camera raw on other files types? The HLS controls had the secondary color adjustments (6 colors instead of the 3). Plus, it had same vibrancy and a better Curves interface. Yesterday was the first time I imported raw into Photoshop CS5 and I got that really cool interface. What is that? Can I use that on other file formats?

Actually I am using the Tradional Chinese Version, when I try to edit the jpg file with camera raw, the system shows that there is no camera raw plug-in. The cmaera raw never work.
