I tried to run it from inittab in a more usual way and get the same ?! When I looked at /usr/sbin/gdm, I found the cause of this problem, look at that #!/bin/sh # # A script so that # 1) we read the standard system env vars # 2) syadmins/integrators can add their own private options etc... test -f /etc/profile && . /etc/profile # Make sure LANG is set # if [ -z "$LANG" ] then if [ -f /etc/sysconfig/language ] then LANG=`. /etc/sysconfig/language; echo $RC_LANG` export LANG fi fi exec /usr/sbin/gdm-binary "$@" Note: it's not a custom archlinux script. This is straight from gdm release 2.30.4 so it's a non-login shell (sh) script that source /etc/profile and breaks standard behavior. no wonder that bash_completion stuff is run there -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
