Nope, that's not it. xrdb is sucessfully reading in my .Xresources file, and
setting the Rxvt* entries, rxvt is just ignoring them.
[joey@kite] ~>xrdb -query |grep Rxvt
Rxvt*background: black
Rxvt*colorBD: yellow
Rxvt*font: fixed
Rxvt*foreground: white
Rxvt*geometry: 80x28
Rxvt*scrollBar: false
If I were having your problem, none of the other settings in my .Xresources
file would work, but they do -- just not rxvt's settings.
