In tty2, tty3, etc... in places where should be a color, there is a space (maybe black color). I thought that this could be because of some settings I have made to my account, but this happens with root account also (where I didn't modifyed anything). Also when I use the man command this happens.

thus far.  Also, please, for the love of $DEITY, wrap your lines at
