[Gllug] bash prompt

[SteveC]

hi

I installed gentoo 1.4 and asked this on the [rather quiet] mailing list 
without respons... the bash profile works fine from console login or ssh 
but xterm gives a nice 'sh-2.04a$' prompt.

bash --login
xterm -ls
xterm -e /bin/bash --login
bash --rcfile /etc/profile

all don't work from within X. Only ssh localhost will give me a nice term!

Running gnome2, ibook2, gentoo 1.4

anyone know whats wrong?

tia

have fun,
