Landy, You are probably logged in as root, and trying to get this through an X console of some sort. I had this happen. I don't remember the details, but I don't believe etc provile gets sourced under thoes conditions. WRT .bashrc I believe that only gets surced when you enter a non-login shell. Try .bash-profile.
