* How override PS1, PS2?

When loading bash read ~/.bash_profile and ~/.bashrc.

Put at end of these files

  PS1='\u@\H$ '

When xterm start bash - it start as nonlogin. So ~/.bash_profile and ~/.bashrc
didn't read. To workaround this use

  $ xterm -e bash -i -c "mc -x"

That make bash interactive and init file readed.
