When I upgraded to 2.2.17 I got a message that nvi had saved the file .Xresources and it could be recovered with the -r switch. Which I did, problem being that it wiped out the old config for emacs: emacs*background:DarkSlateGray emacs*foreground:Wheat emacs*cursorColor: orangered Now when I try to start emacs I get an error: 'undefined color DarkSlateGray' What do I do to fix this? thanks --dale "Know thyself.."
