Order of .profile & .bashrc


My prompt and a few other items are not working correctly. I have found teh
following startup files... are there any more? What is the order or priority
of configuring?

/etc/bash.bashrc
/etc/profile
/etc/skel/.bashrc
/etc/skel/.bash_profile
/etc/skel/.inputrc
$HOME/.bash_profile - commands inside this file only get executed by the
login shell.
$HOME/.bashrc - commands inside this file only get execute when you run a
subshell
$HOME/.bash_logout - executed on logout, good for deleting tmp files and
history.
/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc â executed when xwindows start, startup programs
