Tim,

It really depends on the program and your system.  I don't have aim, but
yahoo's install didn't put anything anywhere, except the executable, which
crashes with a core dump when conecting.  You didn't say which GUI menu
system you are using, so it would be difficult to try to tell you how to get
it on the menu.  If you are using KDE, it would be easiest to install KDE
applications, as generally, they add themselves to the menus (except
kexpress).  You can add things manually, but they dissapear when you add
other things it seems.

Subject: [newbie] Installing programs need some help....


I just setup Internet Connection sharing on my Win2k machine and started
working more
with my LM 7.0 box and the internet. I installed an instant messenger clone
as something to mess with. Upon installing it (no errors) I can't seem to
find it on any
menu??? I searched and found a file called aim that i then clicked on and it
ran, that can't be right, can it??
