[SOLVED] Terminal emulator & GRUB coloring - arman1992 - 12-31-2014

Hi. Hope everyone is doing well.

I'm new to Linux Lite and so far, satisfied with it! A little suggestion. Just if the coloring of terminal emulator and grub was in harmony with the white and gray atmosphere of the distro...
Something like: https://www.dropbox.com/s/c6qoqp71nce87vs/Screenshot%20.png?dl=0

You can configure the color anyway you like.

arman1992,

Very good idea -- it would be great to have the terminal set by default as you've shown in your pic.  Now that you mention it, the terminal does seem a bit out of place looking compared to everything else.  Much, much better the way you set it up!  (Don't know why it never occurred to me to do that too.)  Wouldn't surprise me at all if Jerry integrates your idea into the next version of LL.

Welcome to the forum and thanks for the suggestion.

anyone use " guake " ( in the repos).

I find it easier to use, just toggle on and off with F12, customize it to your liking Smile

Worth a look.

arman1992, what's the font and the hex color of the font you are using? Cheers.

Thank you, I have seen some nice white on grey terminals and have decided this theme better suits our overall look and will be going into 2.4

Hello!

Actually, being both old AND 'old school', on the UEFI netbook, I actually found myself doing such things to Ubuntu MATE as changing the terminal to the 'green screen' look, installing Thunar, Lite Cleaner, Pulse Audio, and the like.

I don't see this as a permanent solution - just waiting to be able to use LL in UEFI mode without resorting to terminal-switching tomfoolery (CTRL-F2/CTRL-F8) to get it to go to the logoff/shutdown screen in under a minute...
