Fedora 10 login screen and terminal windows

[Margaret Doll]

Another complaint I have is with the terminal windows.  When I am  
using black lettering on a white background, the black lettering look  
more like gray.   With my aging eyes I would really like to have the  
lettering  a real black.  I have played with the "color" terminal  
window settings, but haven't seen an improvement.
