Piggy-backing Kent's post, as I can't seem to find Ramiro's post.
For setting you path, and any start up programs on a per user basis
using gnome and GDM, put them in ~/.gnomerc[1], took a bit of digging
to find this, but it is all working out properly now.
[1] This doesn't appear to be standard behaviour from what I have
read, apparently .profile is the standard location, but the script
/etc/X11/gdm/Sessions/Gnome that is installed by Sarge doesn't
appear to use this, prefering .gnomerc

Don't let your mind wander -- it's too little to be let out alone.
