Hi,
What is the approriate place to set environmental variables in Gnome,
both system wide (e.g. for all users) and per user?
How about putting them in /etc/profile for system-wide variables and
~/.bash_profile for user specific variables?
Otherwise try this:

Search the archives of this list as well, this topic was discussed a
couple of months back.
if my memory serves me well, .profile does not provide the environment
setup if you login via xdm or gdm.
If I am wrong, it is probably because there is some other config file as
well as .profile, rather than just .profile. But I do recall someone
saying that .profile is only for cmd line environments.
