I use the following and it works for all access methods to shells,
whether they be spawned by X, XDM, console logins, whatever:

I'm not sure if .profile is required or not, but I use it, because
everything works this way:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]: ~ > cat .profile
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
    . ~/.bashrc
fi

==================================

[EMAIL PROTECTED]: ~ > cat .bashrc
. /etc/profile
[snip everything else that I want for me]

===================================

[EMAIL PROTECTED]: ~ > cat .bashrc
. /etc/profile

PATH=$PATH:/sbin:/usr/sbin
export PATH
[snip other root stuff that I have]

====================================

Then in /etc/profile, everything I want globally set up is
set up here.

Works for me.
