Hi!
I wanted to simplify my bash prompt, so I edited my etc/bashrc file. I thought this was the file that would override any other env files. When I opened it, I saw that the way it was setup was not what my prompt looked like, although I forget exactly what was there. But i edited it the way I wanted it
Code:
PS1="$ "
and saved it.
After a recent upgrade to 12.04, auto tab completion was disable in /etc/bash.bashrc. I uncommented the following lines:
if [ -f /etc/bash_completion ] && ! shopt -oq posix; then
. /etc/bash_completion
fi
I tried to then run source /etc/bash.bashrc and . /etc/bash.bashrc but neither reloaded the config. They just gave me the error -sh: 1: source: not found.
The bash man page says:
"When an interactive shell that is not a login shell is started, bash reads and executes commands from /etc/bash.bashrc and ~/.bashrc, "
I can see that bash.bashrc is executed because I put echo in it, but .bashrc is not.

On one of my Ubuntu 11.10 servers, when I use sudo -i to become the root user, root's .bashrc is not being executed.
