I thought the last time I installed this app for someone that it put an entry 
in the menu, but I may be mistaken.

In a terminal, as super user:

urpmi.setup 

should get you started.

I installed urpmi.setup but can find no way to run it. I tried typing it
into a run field and I get the message "unknown host, urpmi.setup".

I found it listed in /usr/sbin following installation so I assume it is
installed. The info on the icon there says it is a pearl program but I
can find no way of running it.
Should it have been added to my desktop or menu? 

In any event, how do I go about running urpmi.setup once it's installed?

Thanks again!
