Rosario Here, if I'm logged in and X running, I have to logout, and log back in. After that, any changes to bash are seen. -- /\ DarkLord \/ Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

RE: [newbie] unable to update PATH variable
You also have a .bashrc I can never remember which one you need to do as I don't do it that often. Post the questions to the list as I need to learn more and I bet a few others do also.

Re: [newbie] unable to update PATH variable
Hi, why don't you send what you have changed? I.e. your .bashrc file? my .bashrc in my home dir has among other things this line in it: export PATH=~/bin:/mnt/data/programs/java/sdk/j2sdk1.4.1_01/bin:/mnt/data/programs/java/sdk/javawebstart_1.0.1/webstart/javaws:$PATH which works wonderfully bones On Tuesday 08 July 2003 18:33, Rosario Balboa wrote: I just open a new terminal window, type $PATH and everything is the same.
