[QUOTE="xstep, post: 201415, member: 11647"] I cut & pasted that content to a virgin .profile file and it worked properly. Open a Terminal window and type "echo $SHELL" without the quotes. If your really in the bash shell you'll see /bin/bash displayed. If not, I can tell you how to fix it. If your in the bash shell then type "cat .profile" to recheck the file. By the way, unless the qt development path has substitutions for commands in the regular path, I'd set the path as PATH=$PATH:$QTDIR/bin [/QUOTE]
