Hi, I bet this question was answered many times, sorry to bug you again... Usual situation when I start program using fvwm2 menu or some button, then not all environment variables are set ($PRINTER in particular). I usually define environment for all users in /etc/profile and for "xterm" fix the situation using:
XTerm*VT100.loginShell: true Well it fixes situation for "xterm" but not for "netscape" or "xwp" In Xsession I read that /etc/environment is sourced once X is launched. Well this file is missing in standard Debian installation :( Question: 1. How common to all users environment variables are supposed to be set in X? 2. Is "ln -s /etc/profile /etc/environment" a good idea to solve this problem? Thank you, Sasha.
