- I have an A3000T and installed the 3.1 ROM's OK. The only complaint I have
- (and I know it's a nitpicky thing) is that one of the Workbench colors (I forget the
- name of the motif I had in 2.0) is now a sickly green instead of the normal off-white.
- If I go into PointerPrefs, the large pointer is correctly colored. I click Save and
- everything's hunky-dory. But next time I boot, the same thing. Anyone ever hear of
- this or have any fixes? Can I run a script in my user-startup that will fix this? Right now,
- I just put PointerPrefs in WBStartup, but it's still really annoying.
