[SOLVED] Gnome-Shell: Alt+F2 and PATH

Hallo everybody,

I have added $HOME/bin to my PATH with

export PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"

in my .bashrc.

This works fine with the terminal, but Gnome-Shell's Alt+F2 doesn't find the scripts in ~/bin.

How can I add ~/bin to the PATH of Alt+F2?

Thank you.

How do you start gnome? Try moving your PATH modifications to ~/.profile.

I start Gnome with gdm.

Now I have created a ~/.profile with:

  #!/bin/sh

  export PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"

set it as executable and now Gnome finds ~/bin.

Thank you.

lunyx,
Welcome to Arch.  If you consider this thread solved, go ahead and edit your first post and add [SOLVED] to the beginning of the thread title.  It helps those searching for solutions.  The moderators don't do that, because we don't really know when members regard things as solved.

Thanks.
