Console shenanigans. Need help.

[ev1l]

I really like having normal shell on my PDA, but it's been aggravating me since I got my 860.

 - When i start a console (I use Qkonsole, but it happens with the 3 consoles I've tried), my .bashrc never gets executed properly. I put my aliases in there so that I can for example type just "l" and it gets me ls -halF, stupid stuff like that. It never works.

 - Bash-completion only works as a normal user, not when I su to root.

 - In all the consoles I've tried, scrolling back up to check what the output of a particular app, I's painfullly slow.

 - Where can i get a complete GNU toolchain for ARM? the default tools are half-assed, and quite a few of them are missing useful switches.

Any help would be great.
As an extra bonus, anyone who can point out how to import multiple vcards in kaddressbook without having to input them one by one gets a virtual cookie. I have about 70 vcards to import

In answer to your first 2 questions - change the shell of users "zaurus" and "root" to /bin/bash in /etc/passwd (defaults to /bin/sh) That fixed both the problems for me.

There is links to the cross-compile download in the how-to (sorry don't have the link handy but it's easy to find)
