Linux Mint - terminal configuring

[tuuttu...@home.nl]

Hey all!

I have a simple question, whenever I open my terminal from gnome it
starts with a ASCCIart "splashscreen" (donno how to describe it
better...) It is a logo with some "nice" text of some kind. I promise to
take my cynical-psyche-questions to alt.cynical.psyche, but this one is
related to Linux...
And yes you've guessed it... I want to get rid of the ASCII stuff.

But how? I tried to find something in .bashrc but with no luck. And
starting means starting IMHO, not: clear <enter>, than start. ;-)

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance!

Hey Alister!

I already checked .bashrc and couldn't find a thing... Strengthened by
your advice I looked again this time in /etc/bash.bashrc
Hashed the entry /usr/bin/mint-fortune

And that was the end of it! I finally have a proper terminal :)

Thanks pall!

Hi Ivan!

Sorry mate, no /etc/issue to be found on my box. Got it anyway though,
hashed /usr/bin/mint-fortune in /etc/bash.bashrc

Big thanks anyway!

Haven't seen a distro that runs fortune in quite a while.
