I just installed sage on an Ubuntu 10.4 64 bit machine.  I thought I was
supposed to be able to just run sage-ipython, but when I do it fails due
to missing environment variables.  I didn't see in the basic
instructions that I was supposed to set up my environment or what was
the correct way to do it (all kinds of paths are not set).  Please
advise, help much appreciated.

You aren't supposed to run the programs inside of $SAGE_ROOT/local/bin/ directly. Instead, you should run the main sage with an optional argument: $SAGE_ROOT/sage -program, which sets up the environment variables, etc. So, for example, you should run:

$SAGE_ROOT/sage -ipython   (with a space)

or

$SAGE_ROOT/sage -python

etc.

Thanks,

Jason
