5973.0. ".Xdefaults ignored on 4.0b dunix" by KERNEL::COFFEYJ (La Feline Flooz - a unix cat) Thu Jun 05 1997 10:48
Hi all, 
sorry if this sounds wooly, thanks to my ultrix box hanging 
yesterday I lost all the details from the nice call and the 
note I was about to submit for this customer!! Argh!
I've checked patches, notes, and comet and not found anything 
that seems right for this. 
Customer has 4.0b system, not using cde.
dxsession appears to be ignoring the .Xdefaults file. 
xrdb shows settings as they're meant to be as does .Xdefaults if 
you look to check it's been saved ok but when you log in, or even
do restore last saved settings it still doesn't actually apply 
the settings.   to make sure it's not just an error in .Xdefaults 
causing it to abort the read he totally removed the file and 
resaved it - same problem. 
any suggestions ?
thank 
Jo
