OK.... I figured out the issue. Inside .bashrc (in the Linux remote
machine), I was executing xrdb every time I was logging in, but I only
meant it to execute it when requesting xterm. So, I included the following
lines in .bashrc, and everything works.
Thank you berndbausch! You were spot on! I didn't realize that xrdb was
the cause of my issue, and I solved the problem as you suggested.
if [[ -n $DISPLAY ]]
then
/usr/bin/xrdb -load ~/.Xdefaults
fi
