Nope, that's not it. xrdb is sucessfully reading in my .Xresources file, and setting the Rxvt* entries, rxvt is just ignoring them. [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~>xrdb -query |grep Rxvt Rxvt*background: black Rxvt*colorBD: yellow Rxvt*font: fixed Rxvt*foreground: white Rxvt*geometry: 80x28 Rxvt*scrollBar: false If I were having your problem, none of the other settings in my .Xresources file would work, but they do -- just not rxvt's settings. -- see shy jo -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
