Messed up my gnome-terminal, need to reset the profile
Halow, my name is Hermes, changing stuff in my profile while pimping my gnome-terminal, i messed up when i wrote something i shouldn't in the profile command startup, so now the terminal does not start. I'm looking for a way to reset the terminal profile to default without having to actually use it, cuz as i said before, does not start.
I know, i know, weird stuff, but any help is appreciated. thnx in advance. |
Well if it's just a misconfigured file you could open it in most text-editors and undo the changes, or if you can not access the file then your answer will probably lay in single user mode. I don't know your distribution so can not really tell you how to get into it. If you wish to try single user mode just google it with your distribution.

oh, sry, forgot that, i'm using ubuntu.
The thing is, i don't know what i need to edit to reset it, tried .bashrc, but dunno what to change... |
press CTRL_ALT_F1
login edit .bash_profile Code:
vi .bash_profile |
There's a little issue, should that file be in hidden in the home folder? bcs there's no file clld that way. The only ones that are there are .bash_history, .bash_logout and .bashrc
Is it in another location or sumthin? |
are you logged in as user ?
|
yes, i am, the home folder does not display that file, should i log in as root?
