G'day Andrew,
Yeah, I think I can probably see it.
In your /etc/bashrc you have a line near the bottom:
"PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/share/pvm3/".
If I'm right, thats your prob.
Change to
PATH=$PATH:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/share/pvm3/
In my previous response I was going to mention that if PATH was being
clobbered, the culprit might be identifiable from your existing PATH
ie the pvm3.
It seems to bear this out.
And don't forget to clobber the person that put that line in :D
Cheers,
Daniel.

Below are my original files;
/home/<user>/.bash_profile
/home/<user>/.bashrc
/etc/bashrc
/etc/profile
Can you see anywhere where the PATH is being reset in any of these?
I am not quite sure how to interpret the contents of these files.
Can you think of any other edits that may work?
