Path problems
I've just installed Slackware 11.0 and it's my first attempt to seriously replace Windows. I've dabbled in Linux before but I'm a newbie.
This is baffling me. I can start X as root using the startx command but if I su to another user it tells me "Command not found". Then if I su back to root it gives me the same error even though it worked before changing users.
/etc/profile contains:
PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games"
but when I type "echo $path" it just returns a blank line.
Am I missing something obvious here?
