    Please be more verbose. In your initial posting about this problem it
    was visible that you was logged in as root. So the copying of the
    skeleton .bashrc did fix it for root?

    YES. As a root it worked well.

    You too had the problem with a
    missing PS1 set as a normal user?

    Yes.

    ls -al /home/aabento/.bashrc
    cat /home/aabento/.bashrc
    ls -al /etc/bashrc

    Please post the output of the 3 commands.

    [root@aabento html]# ls -al /home/aabento/.bashrc
    -rw-r--r-- 1 aabento nosso 124 May 22 23:24 /home/aabento/.bashrc
    [root@aabento html]#

    [root@aabento html]# cat /home/aabento/.bashrc
    # .bashrc

    # User specific aliases and functions

    # Source global definitions
    if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then
            . /etc/bashrc
    fi
    [root@aabento html]#

    [root@aabento html]# ls -al /etc/bashrc
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1180 Mar 3 03:52 /etc/bashrc
    [root@aabento html]#

    I hope this could help you to understand my "problem ???"

    Tyanks.
