Terminal is using values in ~/.profile but after starting x-11 and going to a xterm window I see from env that /opt/local/bin & sbin are not in my PATH.
However SOFTWARE UPDATE is repeatedly timing-out so I believe Apple may have a major (=big) update up now. hope so :)
xterm launched by Apple X11.app is not a login shell by the default. So it won't read init file. Leopard upgrade may have overwritten your xinitrc file which you should have modified to get a login shell behaviour: Change the "xterm" line in /private/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc by "xterm - ls". You may also want to edit the Applications menu xterm entry. But I might be totally wrong there, I don't have Leopard yet.
