Hi;

I'm running Suse 7.2 with the KDE 2.1.2.
I'm also running Red Hat 7.3 with the KDE 3.0

I've been running gnu emacs 21.1 in the konsole and in an xterm window ( 
emacs -nw ).

When I give emacs the command(s) to use a white background I don't get 
white.  I get a gray in konsole and a greenish/gray in xterm.  This 
happens even if use rgb values or issue the color commands from my 
.emacs or from the command line options.

I was wondering if anyone might know more about the issue then I do and 
could point me to where to read to fix this issue.

Thanks.


Steve
