    Question Application installs

    I installed a game using the add/remove software package manager in BT and I can't find a way to run the program - how can I find it?

    Check the list of files installed with the package using:

    Code:
    dpkg -L <package-name>
    And look for something with a name similar to the name of the package in a directory ending with /bin
    Capitalisation is important. It's the difference between "Helping your brother Jack off a horse" and "Helping your brother jack off a horse".
