..cute prompts in debian and knoppix?

[Arnt Karlsen <arnt@c2i.net>]

Hi,

..with Red Hat-7.3 thru -9,  in /etc/bashrc, I used:
PS1='\[\033[1;33m\]\u\[\033[1;37m\]@\[\033[1;32m\]\H\[\033[1;37m\]:\
\[\033[1;31m\]\w \[\033[1;36m\]\$ \[\033[0m\]'
to get "yellow-user@green.box.name:/red/path/ # ", with "#" or "$" in
cyan, and ":" and "@" in white, which I like a lot.
Knoppix uses an all-cyan Red Hat style prompt. 
RH's own PS1="[\u@\h \W]\\$ " is all white.

..now, in debian and derivatives, _where_ do I set this?
