I'm confused as to how debian handles the .bashrc file. In my user
directory, I have a .bashrc file that reads
# ~/.bashrc: executed by bash(1) for non-login shells.
# see /usr/share/doc/bash/examples/startup-files for examples
# If running interactively, then:
if [ "$PS1" ]; then
# enable color support of ls and also add handy aliases
eval `dircolors`
alias ls='ls --color=auto '
alias ll='ls -l'
alias la='ls -A'
alias l='ls -CF'
alias dir='ls --color=auto --format=vertical'
alias vdir='ls --color=auto --format=long'
set a fancy prompt
PS1='[EMAIL PROTECTED]:\w\$ '
fi
But when I log into X and issue the ls command, it doesn't execute the
command in color, nor does it do anything for ll la or l, what's
overriding the .bashrc file? I don't have xdm installed..
thanks
