<PRE>after installing mod-fortune the following is added to /etc/profile/
if [ &quot;$UID&quot; -ge 500 ] &amp;&amp; ! echo ${PATH} |grep -q /usr/games ; then
    PATH=$PATH:/usr/games
fi
but /usr/games does not shoe up in my path when i log on to kde, kmail says:
/bin/sh: fortune: command not found
and konsole tells me:
[<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-discuss">bascule at mycroft</A> ~]$ echo $PATH
/home/bascule/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/lib64/qt4/bin
[<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-discuss">bascule at mycroft</A> ~]$

now obviously i can add /usr/games the same way i added /home/bascule/bin but 
i thought that /etc/profile was system wide stuff so whats going wrong here?
