Oh, interesting! You're right - I did not realize that would happen.

And that was indeed the solution, although I made a mistake at the=20
time. I'd initially put that line in bashrc instead while trying=20
things, then saw that bash_profile sourced bashrc so assumed it'd do=20
the same. I missed, however, that bashrc returned earlier in the file=20
if running in a noninteractive shell, so my additions were never=20
reached while spawning the X session.

Thank you for the help, and sorry for the run-around!
