When I log in using Gnome, login-time shell initialization doesn't seem to have taken place (as if nothing invoked bash with -login).
More specifically: - In gdmlogin, I select Gnome Session and log in. - I start an xterm (either from a window manager menu or from the Gnome menu bar at the top) or a Gnome terminal. - In the bash shell in the terminal window, when I look at my environment variables, settings in /etc/profile and my .bash_profile/.profile have not been applied. It seems that nothing in the Gnome login process runs a login shell. Shouldn't something in the Gnome login sequence run a login shell and start other Gnome processes from that shell, so that shell login-time setup files get processed? (This is with the Gnome 2.2 backport to woody.) Daniel -- Daniel Barclay [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
