.Xdefaults not taken

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



hello,

I put in one .Xdefaults some "defaults" parameters for xterm such as
reverseVideo (true) and so on ...


then I run the cmdline : xrdb -merge .Xdefaults, to load these defaults

but after this when for example typing "xterm" on cmd line, I realized
that my defaults were not taken into account, that is to say xterm was
not in reverseVideo as I set it by default

I was root when doing that and the  .Xdefaults file was in the directory
of "root" ( I mean not the root "/" directory )

can someone tell me what is wrong and what I have to do to make the
.Xdefaults be tken into account ?

thanks for your help
edouard
