I have three applications that open for when I log into gnome: evolution, nautilus and gnome-terminal. I use gnome-terminal a lot. In my ~/.bash_profile I have "alias ls="ls --color" (It's what I got used to using Red Hat before I moved to Gentoo.) I usually open two or three tabs in the terminal while I'm working on stuff. I don't think my ~/.bash_profile is being loaded because I always have to source it to get my colored ls listings. I think ~/.bashrc is being loaded because I've customized my environment variables (CPATH and CLASSPATH) and they're being loaded because I can echo them in the terminal. I tried adding "source ~/.bash_profile" to the end of ~/.bashrc and opening a new tab and the new tab opens but I never get a prompt in that tab. Have I messed something up somewhere? Why isn't my ~/.bash_profile working?
