I am perplexed by the following problem and hoping someone can help me fix it:

whenWhen I type echo $PATH, I get the output:

/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games

However, I modified my PATH variable using gksudo gedit /etc/environment; the file now reads PATH="/opt/texbin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games".

I am not sure why I am getting two different value of PATH. How can I fix it?

I am running Xfce on a Chromebook using Crouton if that helps.
