thanks, this has enabled me to know why acroread was picking up kprinter


xrdb -q | grep acro

gives

acroread*lprCommand: kprinter


after a mammoth find/grep session I tracked the problem file down to 


/usr/share/apps/kdisplay/app-defaults/AcroRead.ad

But I still have not figured out where this file is getting source from 

startkde runs xrdb -merge /etc/X11/Xresources

but thats all.


If I create a .Xresources with  acroread*lprCommand: /usr/bin/lpr

in this gets overwridden at some point because it still come in with
kprinter set.

The only way I can get it to use what I want is to add it to 


/etc/X11/Xresources,

or

do a xrdb -load ~/.Xresources in my .bashrc.


I think this is pretty poor myself.
