What I have noticed about this is that .Xresouces does indeed work for controlling xterm and what not, but you have to restart X (or at least log in again) in order for the changes to take effect, where as with .Xdefault the changes took place imeadiatly. And I'm still slightly confused as to why .Xdefaults seems to work all 5 of the other debian boxse with almost the exact same configuration. Has something changed recently that would have caused this? Thanks, Josie > > Friendly, > > Sven Luther > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
