Sorry, missed that question first time. I first noticed the problem when using gnus via ssh, not a very helpful test. Much easier: > export PS1='\[\033[1m\]\h\[\033[0m\]<\!>:' and your machine name should be bold. But I have a further (bizarre) observation: This problem is size and/or resolution-related: Show bold as font On Off Size 8pt Works Doesn't work 12pt Doesn't work Doesn't work The above is on a large screen (20" diagonal, resolution 1680 x 1050).
