[gentoo-user] Konsole, Gentoo and colors

[Kevin O'Gorman]

I've got a problem with the colors that are used in Gentoo stuff.
I run KDE, and my terminals are generally konsoles.
The colors used by portage, ls and vim always seem to have
portions that are unreadable because of low contrast -- the
text blends into the background.

I've tried different konsole schemata, and find that different things
work for different purposes, but there's no one schema  that I
can just leave in place and forget.

I use 'light paper' for starters.  The 'linux colors' scheme is good
for some things, but I the darker colors don't show up well on it
(blue in particular), and I pretty much avoid dark backgrounds
when I can because I think they're depressing and they give
me eyestrain.

Does anyone have a suggestion?
