      Does anyone know if Genera 8.1 will work with the color NCD X terminals?
    White on white in 8.0 isn't very informative! 

I have had the white-on-white problem on occasion.  What seem to work
much more reliably are foreground and background colors that are close
to, but not the same as, black and white: e.g., navy blue and ghost
white.  I then, however, have a smaller difficulty: Foreground text
often appears in black instead of navy blue, particularly after
scrolling.  Is this an NCD firmware bug and if so, has NCD promised a
fix in its Release 2.3 ROMs?
