It is a bit more complicated than that. ~/.Xresources is loaded into the resources database of the X11 server by /etc/X11/Xsession.d/30x11-common_xresources. The resource database is a property of the root window, you can observe it roughly with "xprop -root", see the RESOURCE_MANAGER entry; "xrdb -query" is the dedicated tool to observe it. ~/.Xdefaults and ~/.Xdefaults-$HOSTNAME are read by the X11 libraries directly. It makes a big difference for remote applications, since they will see the .Xresources from the server but the .Xdefaults from the client. Regards, -- Nicolas George
