As in the summary with urxvt I can't use the bash-completion utilit, for example the TAB key doesn't work when i try to use sudo, the problem can be caused by a different $PATH variable as the one declared if I use xterm.
This task depends upon

This has nothing to do with urxvt or xterm. This has to do with the way you are starting your shell.

The profile script in /etc/profile.d/ is ONLY executed if bash is started as a login shell.

! In ~/.Xdefaults
urxvt*loginShell: true

If you are not starting bash as a login shell, you need to manually ". /etc/bash_completion" in your bashrc.
