Maybe your Terminal.app is set to use a different shell than login(1). There are no doubt many tutorials on changing and/or configuring your shell available on the web. Or perhaps you need to take this up with your X11 vendor (i.e. Apple), perhaps via http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17075#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

I knew it appear to be a basic question but nonetheless it's an issue, that I've researched again & again with no success. So, I thought I'd post it here to get help for someone who has had the same or similar results or who could just advise. Thanx Btw, I even went into the irc channel no one there -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17075#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Technically it is a macports issue due to I can't use it(macports) correctly after using the install instructions(line x line).
In the initial description, you said "''I have macports running fine...''" so it's tough to figure out exactly what the problem is then. Can you demonstrate, specifically, what you're trying to do, and what the results are?
Btw, I even went into the irc channel no one there
There are people there, however it can get quiet at times; just ask the question and, usually, there should be some response (though do wait more than a few minutes). -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17075#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
