I recently upgraded from IDL 6.2 to 6.3 on a Solaris 8 platform, and now
when I open an IDL window the first time, I get the following messages:

% idl.graphicsWindowWidth X11 resource was used by older versions of IDL
to default width of a graphics
window, but is ignored by this version. It is present and has a value
of 640 which does not agree
with the value of the IDL_GR_X_WIDTH preference (900). Set the
IDL_GR_X_WIDTH preference to 640 if
you wish to use this value. Set the IDL_PREF_OBSOLETE_WARN preference
to False if you wish to
disable these warning messages in the future.
% idl.graphicsWindowHeight X11 resource was used by older versions of
IDL to default height of a
graphics window, but is ignored by this version. It is present and
has a value of 512 which does
not agree with the value of the IDL_GR_X_HEIGHT preference (600). Set
the IDL_GR_X_HEIGHT
preference to 512 if you wish to use this value. Set the
IDL_PREF_OBSOLETE_WARN preference to False
if you wish to disable these warning messages in the future.
% idl.graphicsWindow14Screen X11 resource was used by older versions of
IDL to set graphics windows to
1/4 of the screen size, but is ignored by this version. It is present
and has a value of True which
does not agree with the value of the IDL_GR_X_QSCREEN preference
(False). Set the IDL_GR_X_QSCREEN
preference to True if you wish to use this value. Set the
IDL_PREF_OBSOLETE_WARN preference to
False if you wish to disable these warning messages in the future.

Granted, I could set the IDL_PREF_OBSOLETE_WARN preference to False and
I wouldn't have to see these annoying messages, but darnit, I wan't to
find out where these preferences are being set and just remove them at
the source. I don't have a .Xdefaults file, they're not set in my
.idlde file, and other user's on the same machine don't exhibit this
problem. I can manage to remove them using an xrdb command, but they're
back next time I log in.

Where could these resources possibly be getting set????

Thanks.
