User's bashrc ignored

[josete]

Hi!
It seems my bashrc file is ignored. I’ve made several changes and none take effect.
What I type to change it is …

kate ~/.bashrc

This is a new installation of Manjaro KDE.
I’ve read several posts about this and I’m sure I’m using bash.
When I type

echo $SHELL

the answer is

/bin/bash

When I type

which $SHELL

the answer is the same.

I have also made several changes in /root/.bashrc and all have taken effect perfectly.
I mean, if I type

su

I see the prompt I want.

Any ideas? What do I have to do to change my user’s bashrc?

Thanks in advance!

You need to relog for variables to change.

So log out, then back in.

If you use the KDE terminal emulator you might using zsh. The $SHELL variable is not really reliable in these situations.

Can't change the shell in KDE

It worked. I just switched to plasma recently(Ill change my profile sorry for that). Thank You. For people comming to this: Go to the Konsole app Click on “Settings” in the menubar. Click on “Manage Profiles…”. Click on your default profile Hit edit. In “General Section” change the "Command: " entry and replace /bin/zsh with /bin/bash Hit “Ok”

It was not bash.
It was zsh.
I’ve changed and now it works.
Thanks a lot!
