On Archlinux, I am using version:  rxvt-unicode (urxvt) v8.7 - released:
2007-11-25

I can't get a background for rxvt-unicode. The background pixmap is in xpm
format. all i get is a default white background, this is my ~/.Xdefaults:


! X-Terminal settings
xterm*title:                            X-Terminal
!xterm*background:                      Steel Blue
xterm*background:                       #c48793
xterm*scrollBar:                        true
xterm*cursorColor:                      yellow
xterm*faceName:                         Monospace
xterm*faceSize:                         10

xterm*loginShell:                       true
xterm*saveLines:                        10000



! rxvt unicode settings
urxvt*loginShell:                               true
urxvt*saveLines:                                10000
urxvt*font:                                     xft:Monospace:pixelsize=12
!urxvt*background:                              wheat3
!urxvt*background:                              #c8bbbe
urxvt*backgroundPixmap:                         $HOME/.local/urxvt_BG
urxvt*title:                                    Unicode based X-Terminal

urxvt*cursorBlink:                              true
urxvt*cursorColor:                              dark green
urxvt*pointerColor:                             red
urxvt*borderColor:                              pink




I even tried adding a variable as suggested by man page:

urxvt*path:           PATH_to_xpm_file


but that does not work either. The xpm_file is the symbolic link to some
XPM file.
