Hi all,

Usually I work in X environment (XCFE) with extensive use of x terminal; 
concretely, I use Gnome-terminal.
Sometimes I change to root to do some admin tasks. But often it seems a 
few commands are not availables. The key is in the $PATH value:

echo $PATH (in login shell, interactive ):
/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/root/bin

echo $PATH (in gnome-terminal,  no-login interactive shell):
/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home/jordi/bin

The last path in $PATH variable shows me that the problem would be the 
gnome-terminal doesn't update correclty the $PATH when I change to root 
through "su" command.

¿What do you think about?

TIA.
