I myself had houdini apprentice running on mandrake 9 awhile back. I never used the bash setup script though. What happens if you use the tcsh shell to source the normal houdini_setup file and try to run houdini? On a sidenote if you're up for the install, houdini apprentice has been made to run on gentoo linux as well.
