Thanks for the answers.

I thought that i had the solution.  Grep showed me that ps1 was only in 
.bashrc.  After making a copy of .bashrc I removed the entire if ... fi 
section that contained PS1.

I added PS1="\u@\h >" to the end of .bashrc and sourced the file -  it 
worked, in that terminal.  However, if I open a new terminal (I'm using 
xfce4-terminal) the prompt is back to the corrupted one!

Rebooting the computer doesn't solve the problem.

I have initiated a search of the entire file system for PS1= , although 
I suspecct it take a while.
