solution
I've got it to work correctly by adding one line (below) to my openbox/autostart.sh file... it took a bloody age to work that one out!
Code:
xrdb -load ~/.Xdefault &
------------------------------------------------
Right now urxvt is driving me around the bend. It refuses to display colours correctly throwing out errors if I have any colours set for it in .Xdefaults or launch it with a colour swtich like -fg COLOUR. The error I mean is:-
Code:
', using pink instead. color '#000000
And why pink I mean good god it hurts the eyes to look at!
The funny thing is that it use to work then I switched to using KDE and yakuake for a while and now that I've moved back to openbox it no longer works. Anyone know what's causing this/how to fix it?
.Xdefault file I'm using to test with two colour lines not commented out.
