In my /etc/profile file, I wrote:
"PATH="/opt/j2sdk1.4.2_04/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin""
First, you should append /opt/j2sdk1.4.2_04/bin to the _end_ of your
PATH variable, not the beginning.
When I log in text mode, the entire PATH is there as I want, I can
"startx" and when I open a terminal, the PATH is perfect.
Now, if I start the computer with KDM and that I run a terminal, the
Define "terminal." What are you actually running? XTerm, KTerm,
PATH is only: "/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games"
I use kterm, but my problem is the same when I use an icon of a program
that use java. So I want the PATH to be always there for any use.
I gave up trying to figure out how kde works. If you have that in
/etc/profile, it ought to be right.
