Hi -- I'm using gdm, gnome, and bash, and can't seem to get things set up so my .bash_profile gets read properly upon login. I've seen some messages on various lists that advised explicitly sourcing .bash_profile in .xsession for proper startup -- problem is related to Xsession being run as /bin/sh rather than /bin/bash, I think. This seems like kind of an awkward soln, but I can live with it. Now I'm finding, though, that my .xsession *also* doesn't seem to be getting read, despite that everything seems to be in order (/etc/X11/Xsession okay, no ~/.Xsession in the way, allow-user-xsession in Xsession.options, etc.).
Just to be clear, the basic symptom is that variables set in .bash_profile (including my path) are undefined/incorrect in all applications, including terminals. Setting them in ~/.xsession, or sourcing .bash_profile from ~/.xsession doesn't help. Thanks, Adam Siepel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
