One strange 'gotcha' I've run into with Xming is it doesn't create a login shell on the remote system. This means the system-wide bash_profile is never executed, so you never get any paths or environment variables set in that file. I'm not sure how to work around this; putty doesn't seem to have any command-line flags to indicate a login shell should be created.
