Common problem when you tweak your environment. You changed /bin/sh to a symbolic link to /bin/bash. Updating your packages reinstituted the /bin/sh binary. /bin/sh != /bin/bash. /bin/sh is ash. Larry Original Message: - From: Aldi Kraja [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Fri, 21 Feb 20

Great! I tested your suggestion with startx -e bash and it corrected the paths as the previous defaults. I am not going to use rxvt and I have uninstalled it, unless someone will tell any extra use of it compared with X-term. Thanks, Aldi Igor Pechtchanski wrote: On Fri, 21 Feb 2003, Aldi Kraja
