Sean Santry:
|I'm using fxtv version 1.00 on a FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE system. Everything
|works fine except that it doesn't seem to be registering the Xresource
|setting for tunermode. My .Xresources looks like:
...
|Fxtv*tunerMode: cable
...
|Any ideas?
Yeah, it's an X resource precedence thing. Basically:
A*B:
has lower precendence than:
A.B:
So anything which is specified in the system default app resource file:
/usr/X11R6/lib/
(which uses the A.B form BTW) will override your settings.
Just FYI, you can see all the settings that are kicking in by typing:
appres Fxtv | grep tunerMode
You'll notice that you see two of them, one with a . and one with a *.
Change all your 'Fxtv*'s to 'Fxtv.'s and all of your settings will work.
For the future, I'll look at changing all the 'Fxtv.' settings to 'Fxtv*'
in the system default app resource file so this will be a non-issue.
