Ok, I had the same issue:
Put this in your .bashrc:
# LinuxCNC SIM
alias linuxcnc="xrdb -all -query|sed -e 's#[A-Z_]*BACKGROUND# gray90#' -e
's#[A-Z_]*FOREGROUND# Black#' -e 's#[A-Z_]*HIGHLIGHT# White#' -e
's#[A-Z_]*LOWLIGHT# Black#'|xrdb -merge; linuxcnc"
then run "linuxcnc"

Hi Gene!
You are the same Gene from over at the linuxcnc mailing list?
Did you install TDE on LinuxCNC?
Nik
AaiiYup, thats me. And yes. I now have control over the fonts used in kmail.
And the simulated Linuxcnc I find, in the uspace version, runs well on a
non-prempt AMD64 kernel. Latency figures are of course astronomically
horrible so one could never ever run even a servo controlled machine with it
safely, but it serves to proof-read and execute cutting electronic air, the
gcode I write just fine. That was the point. :) However I hadn't tried it
since installing TDE, and it now fails:

LinuxCNC terminated with an error. You can find more information in the log:
/home/gene/linuxcnc_debug.txt
and
/home/gene/linuxcnc_print.txt
as well as in the output of the shell command 'dmesg' and in the terminal
So how do I fix this Unknown color problem?
Cheers, Gene Heskett
