 |
|
In console (terminal) mode I can't use a soft (in root after su) :
dcro@didier dcro $
dcro@didier dcro $ su
Password:
root@didier dcro # gkrellm
bash: gkrellm: command not found
root@didier dcro #
I have the same result with : konqueror, mozilla, kate, etc.
This problem began 3 days ago, I don't know why. The only changed my screen (from a CRT to a LCD one) |

It's 'cos they're not on root's path.
type:
and compare with your standard user.
To get your full root path do:
instead of straigt su. Alternatively, just type:
| Code: |
source /etc/profile
|
Which has the same effect.

There are several ways, but it's hard to do it permanently. Look for settings of ROOTPATH in files in /etc/env.d.

Then after env-update, run :

Now you can check your environement for the changed variables.
