KDE vs Minime Konsole Behavior

[ebvt]

I did a very fast and successful install of Minime on an old Thinkpad yesterday and found that I could not copy the pass server sources.list which I had placed in my brand new home dir. Until I noticed that there seems to be a subtle difference between the konsole in my KDE installation and the konsole in Minime.

In KDE, calling up a konsole gets me [eb@localhost ~]$ ;  su and password -->  [root@localhost eb]#
In Minime calling up a konsole also results in [eb@localhost ~]$  but su and password  -->  [root@localhost ~]#   To get to [root@localhost eb] I have to cd /home/eb

Any ideas why this is so? No big thing to me - just a question

In MiniMe the command su is aliased to su -.
