I have a question about how bash and gnome2 interact. I'm sure in the past, adding something (e.g. setting an environment variable) to .bash_profile was sufficient for whatever it was to show up in all the places I use bash. At the moment however, this does not seem to be true within gnome-terminal.
I'm sure things must have changed, because I have lines like export GDK_USE_XFT=1 in there, which implies that at some point that was relevant. So the question is, was I hallucinating, and if not, was this change deliberate? What is the best way around it? At first I thought it was something I could change in gnome-terminal, but I realised it is more of a session thing. Could I just add .bash_profile to my session?
