Hello,
So I followed the BLFS 6.0 procedure and I have an unexpected
environment "detail". When I login via a VT, I get the usual shell with
a prompt like
wizard:~
[ksomervi] $
per the setting of PS1 as expected. However, when I startx or login
through xdm to twm or xfce, any terminal window launched shows a prompt like
bash-3.00$
which isn't what I expected. Poking around, it's clear that the profile
scripts are not being sourced, that is, I don't get an interactive
login shell like I would expect. To work around this, I set
'XTerm*loginShell: True' in my .Xdefaults file, but I'm wondering if
I've goofed something up along the way.
Any suggestions or explanations for this behavior?
Thanks,
./ks
