1. In $HOME/.bash_profile  add  "export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH
2. logout, login
3. env | grep PATH

Expected Results:

Additional Information:
Comment 1 Havoc Pennington 2002-07-25 18:27:10 UTC 
This is a duplicate bug, I think the other one should be against gdm or xinitrc.
Comment 2 Havoc Pennington 2002-08-27 20:14:13 UTC 
should be fixed in gdm 2.4.0.7-6
Comment 3 Jay Turner 2002-09-03 20:52:11 UTC 
Fix confirmed with gdm-2.4.0.7-10.
