Hi:
Using Karoo i did update all my etc-update -im not sure about the procedure, and why i must do that, in the man of emerge the info is not very complete-
Any way, i rebooted and when i enter to the terminal, i get:
bash-3.2 is not the name i putted.........is there a way to restore my original values?
And, how do exactly do the etc-update thing?? any guide or something? |

There are different ways of configuring that. One is by setting the PS1 environment variable in ~/.bashrc; the one that comes with the gentoo minimal install is nice, so you can use that one if you want:
| Code: |
$ echo PS1="\[\033[01;31m\]\h\[\033[01;34m\] \W \$\[\033[00m\] " >> ~/.bashrc
|
(notice this has to be done as normal user) |

Etc-update updates the config files of the applications that you have just updated. You should be quite careful using it and I personally would recommend using dispatch-conf, which is saver to use. |
