After install lxterminal it starts fish?

Post by Ken E Unix »

After installing lxterminal as sudo pkg install lxterminal when typing in lxterminal fish comes up?

lxterminal is in /usr/local/bin as -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 72464 Jul 19 16:23 lxterminal

GhostBSD is at 23.07.29

Any ideas? Thanks

I'm new to GhostBSD, but I have also fish in mate-terminal, so it must be the default login shell.

Or maybe you've changed it with chsh ?

This sentence is confusing to me. Could you explain your problem better?

Fish is the GhostBSD default TE.
You can change the TE to another.

Hi. I have a setup as I do on other systems where I have desktop launchers to run lxterminal:

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Name=LX Terminal
Comment=
Exec=lxterminal
Icon=computer
Path=
Terminal=false
StartupNotify=false

Yet executing this it runs fish?

This is what is in /etc/shells:

/bin/sh
/bin/csh
/bin/tcsh
/usr/local/bin/lxterminal
/usr/local/bin/bash
/usr/local/bin/rbash
/usr/local/bin/fish

Fixed.

Change : Exec=lxterminal
To read : Exec=lxterminal -e bash
