Hi guys.
I have edited some xterm settings through the .Xdefaults file, and it loads when I do "xrdb .Xdefaults", but it doesnt load automatically at every reboot/login.
I use the gdm inittab method.
I also read something about Xdefaults not being used anymore, but Xresources instead?
Thanks.
EDIT: Solved, I guess. Just made a shell script that loads "xrdb -load .Xdefaults" and added it to the gnome startup apps.

.Xdefaults is still in use on my system. Are the permissions correct on that file?

yes, I created the .Xdefaults file with my regular user.

can I add "xrdb -load .Xdefaults" to my .xinitrc file perhaps? Is .xinitrc loaded with gdm?

I symlinked .Xdefaults to .Xresources so older applications can read the settings they want to see.

To know or not to know ...
... the questions remain forever.
