This is a common problem (e.g. under OSX too). Probably you should put
your IDL stuff in your .login file, and log out/in, which will cause
your entire GNOME session to inherit that environment. I put:

source $HOME/.idl_setup # get idl aliases

in .login, and put all relevant variables in that file.
