This is a small issue that is bugging me. If I open an xterm under KDE, I get a standard white background with black foreground. However, I have these settings in my ~/.Xresources file: ! xterm settings xterm*foreground: SteelBlue2 xterm*background: black xterm.eightBitInput: true xterm*multiScroll: on xterm*jumpScroll: on xterm*font: a14 xterm*ScrollBar: off xterm*SaveLines: 1000 xterm*VisualBell: true xterm.eightBitOutput: true xterm*CursorColor: lightblue If I go into Icewm and open an xterm, I get a black background and SteelBlue2 foreground. KDE is not respecting or using my .Xresources settings. Does any know why? Best Regards, Keith -- LPIC-2, MCSE, N+ We drive on this highway of fire Got spam?
