Some time ago I used a file ".Xdefaults" where things like emacs*Background: DarkSlateGray emacs*Foreground: White emacs*pointerColor: Orchid emacs*cursorColor: Orchid emacs*bitmapIcon: on
etc. stands. I found in the initial .Xsession that the default place is usrresources=$HOME/.Xresources so I changed the files in that folder (like adding another default backround for xterm). Why doesn't this have any influence neither if i start with "startx" nor "xdm"?? Why is debian so different from other unixes who use ".Xdefaults"? Where can I place my preferences for X????
