Public bug reported:
When I boot up, the /etc/environment file isn't being read, meaning that
the default $PATH variable is very short, and any other items that I've
added don't get added to the environment.
This is happening on my EeePC 900 which is running Lucid with lxde and
openbox. It's not happening on my Toshiba Satellite A10 which is running
Xubuntu. Therefore, I suspect that it's something to do with
lxde/openbox.
My current workaround for this is to add a file, 98environment, to the
/etc/X11/Xsession.d directory. Adding lines to /etc/rc.local didn't
work.
