This no longer works (!) In strace -Ffot xterm -e .configs/rxprofile I see this: 17686 execve("/usr/bin/X11/xterm", ["xterm", "-e", ".configs/rxprofile"], [/* 38 vars */]) = 0 ... 17686 fork() = 17687 ... 17687 rt_sigaction(SIGHUP, {SIG_DFL}, {SIG_IGN}, 8) = 0 17687 access("/u/ian/personal/linux/bin/.configs/rxprofile", X_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) 17687 access("/usr/local/bin/.configs/rxprofile", X_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) 17687 access("/bin/.configs/rxprofile", X_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) 17687 access("/usr/bin/.configs/rxprofile", X_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) 17687 access("/usr/local/sbin/.configs/rxprofile", X_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) 17687 access("/sbin/.configs/rxprofile", X_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) 17687 access("/usr/sbin/.configs/rxprofile", X_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) 17687 access("/usr/bin/X11/.configs/rxprofile", X_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) 17687 access("/usr/games/.configs/rxprofile", X_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) 17687 access("/bin/.configs/rxprofile", X_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) 17687 write(2, "No absolute path found for shell"..., 53) = 53 Which is quite insane enough, but it is followed by: 17687 --- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) --- Just as icing on the cake, another deficiency in xterm means that I don't see this message - the window just disappears again. On woody's xterm I see this: 9915 execve("/usr/bin/X11/xterm", ["xterm", "-e", ".configs/rxprofile"], [/* 43 vars */]) = 0 ... 9915 fork() = 9916 ... 9916 rt_sigaction(SIGHUP, {SIG_DFL}, {SIG_IGN}, 8) = 0 9916 execve(".configs/rxprofile", [".configs/rxprofile"], [/* 43 vars */]) = 0 which is exactly as it should be. Can we have the old sane behaviour back please ?
