Hi, you have 2 .bashrc files, one in your home directory and one in root.
to see the file in home directory...
[CODE]ls -a .bashrc[CODE]
to edit in your home directory....
to get into your root directory..Code:gedit .bashrc
to list .bashrc..Code:sudo -i
to edit in root directory....Code:ls -a .bashrc
if this satisfies your question..please mark this as SOLVEDCode:gksudo gedit .bashrc
Thank you SOLVED had to use nano as gedit wanted display settingQuote:
