Figured this one out... Ubuntu's /etc/gdm/Xsession doesn't set
SYSRESOURCES (and USRRESOURCES) before sourcing
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/30x11-common_xresources, so
/etc/X11/Xresources/x11-common is never read.

Setting "*customization: -color" in there solves this.
Another workaround is to:
cat /etc/X11/app-d
On my system, Debian squeeze, the resource files for xterm are:
/etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm
/etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm-color
xterm loads its resources from /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm, but if you
add the line
XTerm*customization: -color
To your ~/.Xdefaults file, then xterm loads will load it

So far, Ubuntu ranks _last_ of all bug-tracking systems that I deal with,
for getting things done. Perhaps the package maintainers tend to assume
that all of the work is done in Debian.

Hi, is anyone working on this? It's really annoying 8-).
I ran uxterm under strace and it appears to only look for UXTerm and
_NOT_ UXTerm-color resources. Since x11-common is responsible for
making it use -color, I looked for uxterm opening that file in the
strace, but it appears to ignore that

We're not doing anything in the xterm packaging to make it white rather

Just for your information xterm have white background on my Jaunty
install (and on my vbox karmic as well).
On Jaunty I am using xterm version 241-1ubuntu1 and on Karmic I am using
version 243-1ubuntu1.
