It seems as if whatever I add to my ~/.bash_profile and / or ~/.bashrc doesn't make any difference (yes I know you must logout / back-in). My .bash_profile looks like this:

Code:

     [ -f ~/.bashrc ] && . ~/.bashrc
     eval `dircolors -b`
     alias d="ls --color"
     alias ls="ls --color=always"
     alias ll="ls --color -l"
     export PATH='/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/qt2/bin:/usr/qt3/bin'


I am simply trying to have folders appear as a different color than files in any terminal ( x or shell ) and to set my path so that I dont have to enter the full path when trying to run a program. What am I doing wrong? Thanks -

Hi!

You might check out /etc/skel/.bash_profile

I set my aliases in .bashrc instead of .bash_profile; that will solve your problem. For more information you can check this out.
