Is it because some NULL sneaks in into the part of code that
prepares (snprintf ()'s?) the command line (then passed to
system ())?
What's the output of xdpyinfo(1)?
--cut: xrdb(1)--
CLASS_visualclass_depth=num
A symbol is defined for each visual supported for the screen.
The symbol includes the class of the visual and its depth; the
value is the numeric id of the visual. (If more than one
visual has the same class and depth, the numeric id of the
first one reported by the server is used.)
--cut: xrdb(1)--
Could it be that xrdb(1) doesn't know the name of some visual
class?
