Here's my problem:

I had some pre-installed version of MySQL on a Linux machine that I didn't
want to use or know how to dispose of properly and then installed a source
distribution on the same machine. I've gotten the source distribution
installed all right and everything seems to be working smoothly enough,
however, I have a lot of defunct mysql files laying around my server that I
would like to get rid of (from the pre-installed distribution).
Additionally, I have to type the complete path to the new MySQL server, or
it will try to connect with the previously installed version. Anyone know
how I can get rid of the old files and fix my environment so that my new
MySQL distribution is called when I enter "mysql", "mysqladmin", and the
like on the command line?

TIA,

Anatole
