    Hi All,

    I'm having to send this from Windows hell, but I can't do anything in
    my Linux environment.

    I can log in, but every time I issue a command, I get told that it's
    not found. For instance, when I ran startx, it couldn't find the
    command. When I ran ls, it couldn't find the command. I even tried
    entering a path to the command, like /usr/bin/ls and /bin/ls, but to
    no avail.

    Yesterday, I did a couple of things on the computer and don't know if
    that had anything to do with my problem.

    First, I wanted to install my krecipes program which I retrieved via
    svn. When I tried to do that, I got told that for the present kde
    used unsermake instead of the gnu make utility. So, I installed
    unsermake and then did the "export PATH" thing to be able to use
    unsermake from where it was insalled. No perceivable problems after
    doing this.

    Then, I did a yum update which installed a number of new KDE packages
    from the updates-released repository.

    Today, I added a program which I installed via tarball and edited my
    .bash profile to make the permanent addition to my path. Then, I
    rebooted and now, no commands will work.

    Any ideas what is going on here and what I have to do to fix it?

    Regards,

    Colleen
