reason is:
when I localy start a terminal, it recoginzes it is in an X enviroment
and sets the PROMPT_COMMAND.
but remote he doesn not, because there is not X enviroment. therefore
there is no hardstat line.
for having a prompt (%h) all the time, you need to insert this (or
similar, format up to you) line into the .bashrc for your user _AND_ all
users you "su - " to. so eg root user.
export PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne
"\033_${USER}@${HOSTNAME%%.*}:${PWD/$HOME/~}\033\\"'
