I'm running Ubuntu Dapper. It's got the default for an x-window set as black background white foreground. I want to invert that to white Background, black foreground. I can't figure out the right switches to do that. Anybody have a clue on this?

I ended up doing the uninstall -- reinstall routine and now it's working like I want.
