Hi all,

I've been having some very odd errors related to attempting to customize my environment with an .Xresources file. I'm running X11 beta 3 with the developer SDK on Mac OS 10.2.6.

I've added some basic customizations to my ~/.Xresource file such as:

xterm*saveLines:             10000
xterm*scrollBar:             true
xterm*rightScrollBar:        true
xterm*jumpScroll:            true

xterm*Background:            black
xterm*Foreground:            gray70

which I load in my ~/.xinitrc with the xrdb -merge command.

All seems to go well at startup except for the fact that none of my customizations occur. Then, when I launch an xterm from a shell, these errors are spit out to stderr.

Does "xrdb -query" show that the resources were loaded correctly?
