The best way of doing this is to add a line: xterm*termName: xterm-color to ~/.Xdefaults, and then make sure that: /usr/X11R6/bin/xrdb -merge ${HOME}/.Xdefaults gets run as part of your session initialization --- ie. add it to your ~/.xsession file if you're running xdm(1) or equivalent, or to ~/.xinitrc if you're using startx(1). This should work under KDE, Gnome or any old window manager.
