su & $PATH & gdm

[Paolo Pantaleo]

OK sorry i shold read the man pages

Anyway the problem arises also with gdm:
if i run
    startx
in gnome (ALT+F2 -> echo $PATH > ~/what_path) or in a terminal run by
gnome the $PATH is ok
if i use gdm the $PATH is not ok
(since gdm is run as root it will change user id shomewhere)
