Bash Profile Sample

[07dcolem]

Could a few of you (experienced) users post your /.bash_profile so i can see how somethings work......thank you!

[Dog-One]

Just the generic one here:

# .bash_profile
 
# Get the aliases and functions
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
        . ~/.bashrc
fi
 
# User specific environment and startup programs
 
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
 
export PATH
unset USERNAME

Not sure how useful it will be to you though.

i'm trying to figure out how to make gcc my default compiler and im told you can do it in bash??

GCC should already be the "default" (only) compiler. Open up a terminal and type "cc --version" - you should see something like this:

$ cc --version
cc (GCC) 3.4.2 20041017 (Red Hat 3.4.2-6.fc3)

yes that is what comes up in the terminal but my nvidia installation still doesn't think it exists.....what should i do? I dont understand this!

Are you running FC1? If I remember correctly there was an issue back then where the kernel was complied with a different version of gcc than the rest of the distro. The command to use the older gcc version was:

export GCC=gcc32

I'm pretty sure that was the issue, but it's been a while. Google your version of FC with something like

FC? nvidia export gcc=

where FC? would be FC1 or FC2 depending on your version. You'll get the information you need.
