What profile does Konsole use on startup
When I run Konsole in KDE, it doesn't appear to be using my ~/.bash_profile as the startup file. Does anybody know how to change this? Or to tell what file it is using? I looked in the Konsole help manual, but couldn't find any information.

You want to make Root shell use su - so that you get roots environment.

When KDE gets started this way there is no proper login shell. There is a shell script that should source .bash_profile, but because it's running under sh, it doesn't understand the bash specific stuff. I did once experiment with a .bash_specific file that got sourced either in bash_profile, or .bashrc according to whether a BASH_ONCE variable had been exported. I think it worked, but I dont have it anymore. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
