Thanks for the clue, Rafael: I have xrdb, but it couldn't work because it couldn't find cpp. Soooo..... I downloaded and installed cpp, and now my Xwindows is reading everything correctly (charles: except .Xresourses <grin>).
Now that I have slink the way I want it, I can go back to my hamm partition and experiment with kernel compiling.
