Hi 

I know that the new xterms in 3.2 supports native color, but I'm having trouble getting it
to work. It works fine when I log in as root through xdm, but there is no color when
I log in as someone else. I have tried all the available options when open a xterm,
as well as copying .fvwm2rc, .login and .cshrc from /root to make sure all my aliases 
for both users are the same. Can anyone suggest anything? Do you need to call
xterm with +cm and +dc options?  BTW I can make the cursor change color, as well
as changing the background and foreground. The problem lies I am 
talking about the ansi escape sequences programs like colorls use.

thks
pierre
