Igor,

Looks like your just getting your feet wet with Linux.

I rarely update /etc/profile because I assume my next OS upgrade will
override it.  Instead I prefer to do it for each individual user login
(/home/<username>/.profile)

Just add your commands to the end of .profile unless you have a
specific reason to put it earlier.  From a command line you can do
that by:

prompt> cd
prompt> echo "PATH=/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.3.0/bin:$PATH"  >> .profile
prompt> echo "export PATH" >> .profile

That way you don't even need an editor.

Then
prompt> cat .profile will let review what changes you made.

If it looks good, logout and log back in.
