I just tried this on current lucid:
echo "XTerm*reverseVideo: on" > ~/.Xresources
then logged out and back in (with the GNOME session), and I indeed get:
$ xrdb -query
XTerm*reverseVideo: on
[...]
and xterm is white-on-black now. /etc/gdm/Xsession in lucid has code to
handle custom resources:
userresources="$HOME/.Xresources"
[...]
if [ -f "$userresources" ]; then
xrdb -nocpp -merge "$userresources"
fi
** Changed in: gdm (Ubuntu Lucid)
Status: In Progress => Fix Released
