Xterm does not, by default execute you profile ever, it is not a login shell. On normal xterm you need to run with the option of +ls to make the xterm a login shell. I imagine this is your problem. You could always change /etc/passwd to point your home directory to /mnt/mmc. Or better yet just mount the mmc card onto /home/user! This gives you the benefit that if the card is not found (ie removed) your settings will be lost but at least you can still run apps because /home/user is the original version. _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
