Derek, sourcing .profile makes perfect sense. You can't rely on having a
terminal or really being interactive or anything else _anyway_, and in
practice, long experience shows that sourcing profile in Xsession
actually doesn't cause any problems in practice. Display managers should

Sigh. Display managers should NEVER source .profile at all... that
file is exclusively for interactive shells, as is explicitly stated in
all of the man pages of every shell ever. I just opened Bug #1468832
about this, where I also explained how to properly accomplish what
people want here.

It was done in the past so there is a strong argument that is should
continue.
If it is Ubuntu policy that '~/.profile' get sourced by the display
manger, all the display managers should do it and the sample file should
not indicate it is intended for the login shell.

Right. While that works in Ubuntu too, sourcing of /etc/profile and
~/.profile by the DM is established practice in Ubuntu since long

You are right. I thought it was not sourced since I was getting an umask

Sounds unlikely to me; it should be sourced in /usr/sbin/lightdm-
session.
Please note that this bug was closed 2.5 years ago. You may want to ask
for help e.g. at http://askubuntu.

When using GDM, ~/.Xmodmap is loaded by /etc/gdm/Xsession irrespective of
/etc/profile and ~/.profile, so I'd suggest that you file a separate bug.

Basically, my .xmodmap file is not being loaded when I log in (I'm

ignored in Oneiric. There

I noticed this with the LightDM drops in the oneiric repos today.
Until this is fixed, you don't automatically get ~/bin added to your
