I also remeber that when installed things, the entries would come up in the menu. In fedora they don't. I cant reinstall something cause it tells me that they are already installed, and I have no idea where to find the executable files from, and they aint on the handy dandy menu. (What do people in linux call it?) Where are they? I used RPMs...	Growly (6)

RPM's should add an entry to the menu, but you can add this yourself manually. Most executables go into /usr If you enter into a console window this should list the directories where files are located.	Jen C (20)
