There are so many things wrong with Redhat I felt Redhat was to blame, I just couldn't figure out what Redhat had done to make emacs different. I had, at one point, searched that directory tree for Xdefaults for emacs, but never found any, so I had completely disregarded that as the reason. Anyway, I put this in my .Xdefaults and all is well for me: *VT100*colorMode: false *VT100*boldColors: false *VT100*dynamicColors: false *VT100*colorBDMode: false So I must thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
