jISV Member Registered: Feb 2002 Location: England Distribution: MDK8.2 Posts: 128 Rep:	environment variables. I thought this might be better here, but couldn't delete it from the other location.. I have just installed md8.2 which has kernel 2.4.18-6. I'm using KDE window manager 2.2.2. Can anyone tell me if there is a problem with setting environment variables? I have set classpath and path variables in /etc/profile and ~/.bash_profile, but the applications are never picked up when I try to run them. I could put them in /usr/bin I guess, but I like to keep the applications I am trying to run on a separate partition. I thought I had read somewhere about KDE ignoring classpath and path settings in profiles. Is this right? Thanks
