I can't find installed application

Hi. I can’t find and run the apps that I nstall. I mean compressed apps that we should run their configure in the Terminal.
Where do they go after install and how can i run them?

That is up to the app’s installation process, there is no general
answer. Sometimes I’ve had to search the entire disk for the filename to
find them. /usr/bin/ is one common destination, but home/[username]/bin
is another.

Tnx. I found them. but I couldn’t even run more than one of them. How can I run them?

If you tell us what the app. is, it might help us.

Often it’s a simple as type it in a terminal

eg: open a terminal and type: dolphin (this assume you are using kde4)
you could type: firefox


You can add the app. to the menu too. Just find the executable, then edit the menu

tnx for help. I did what i would do.

:?
Yep. Whatever that means

no matter. you’ll learn later.:wink:
