Yes,
on *nix you have to set those variables manually.

Just put them in your .bashrc file (assuming you're using the bash shell)
in your $HOME directory and you'll have them set for every interactive session.

Just paste this in your terminal and hit enter:

Code:
cat << \__eof__ >> "$HOME"/.bashrc
ORACLE_SID=orcl
ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_2
PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin

export ORACLE_SID ORACLE_HOME PATH
__eof__

After that, in order to activate the new settings,
run:

Code:
. "$HOME"/.bashrc

Or just open a new terminal.

No.
It's OK, you don't get sqlplus not found no more and that's because of the variables you set.

As I already told you, you'll need to actually start your Oracle instance:

Code:
sqlplus / as sysdba
startup

You don't need iSQL*PlusSmilie

You may need to start it:

Code:
"$ORACLE_HOME"/bin/isqlplusctl start
