Things work for a few hours, I run normal programs, but then I bring up emacs (for which I have a line 'emacs*Font : Rom14') and it's back to default font. In addition, every other program's .Xdefaults seem to be ignored. Killing X (Ctrl/Alt/Bksp) and restarting restores things. Is this common and to be reported, or am I doing something strange?
