in the default .Xresources I find in my $HOME is this:

XTerm*ReverseVideo:     true
XTerm*jumpScroll:       true
XTerm*CursorBlink:      false
XTerm*CursorColor:      #87FF00
XTerm*Background:       #102030
XTerm*scrollTtyOutput:  true
XTerm*BorderColor:      black
XTerm*BorderWidth:      1
XTerm*eightBitInput:    false
XTerm*metaSendsEscape:  true
XTerm*font:             -xos4-terminus-*-*-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-*
XTerm*boldMode:         false
XTerm*saveLines:        1000
XTerm*translations:     #override : select-end(PRIMARY, CLIPBOARD, CUT_BUFFER0)

somehow these settings don't get copied during ubiquity install?
