Just did an upgrade of my woody setup and found my xterm's default
resource settings changed. Most annoying. Anyhow... in trying to change
them to what I want them to be (reverse vid (white on dark), fixed default
font, no scroll bar, no visual bell, etc) I found that I couldn't figure
out how. Now I can do it -my- way and either bork some scripts or some
such but I was wondering if there was a debian way to do it. I've tried
modifying /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm* but this appears to have no impact
on the scheme of things in the end (and I did the whole logout/login
cycle). Bugger. :/ I'm also running KDE with kdm as my login manager.

Anyhow... How can I do this? Can anyone help? The present settings hurt
my eyes, give me an xterm that's 66 chars wide (when it was 80 before) a
visual bell which is excessively annoying and a scrollbar that is useless
to me due to my being happy in using the kboard to get around. Help...
