Hi Greg,
thank you very much for your explanation. It makes many things more clear for
me. Not every thing is covered by the documentations, and during the times,
debian developers changed things or made decisions of behaviour, to make the

Here is how to do it.
I posted this back on 31 March 2007.
This illustrats the value of searching the archives first.
Good Luck!

I'm confused now. You suggest using ~/.xsession to source the user's
profile but if you select "KDE" from the *dm screen causing ~/.xsession to

to read:

This will exec the session manager though a login shell. This permits the
shell to contibute to the environment (in the case of bash this includes
sourcing /etc/profile).

Thanks Leandro,
but that's not the problem. My problem is that even bash is no longer
using /etc/profile. I have specified a PATH in /etc/profile, but bash
gets another PATH from somewhere else (don't no from which file)...
Any new ideas?

since my last update of the "testing" packages, XFree86 is no longer

Is there another file that has the same function now?
Thanks

Screen doesn'
Hello list,
I have set some aliases in /etc/profile, but
when I enter "screen" and create a new "screen" session,
it does not work, I am afraid screen will not read /etc/profile.
