I have stopped/started /etc/init.d/kdm
Some things, like charClass and xterm*font appear to automatically work;
but, even with only ~/.Xdefaults that was so.
When I open XTerm (Unicode) it is black on white. When I open mutt it
is white on black.
I have tried invoking this, *without* affecting change:
xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources
Only when I do this, is change affected:
xrdb -load ~/.Xresources
Then, XTerm (Unicode) is white on black (not that I want this effect),
and mutt is black on white (which I _do_ want).
What am I missing?
