TADA!!!!!!!!
And in one line you sum up my biggest dislike about Linux (and trust me, I'm fascinated by the bloody thing). You install a program and you can't find the bloody shortcut to run it, or you have to start hacking at files to make it run or you get into dependency hell. And that's after you get round the daunting task of getting presented with an OS which has everything, many of which are not quite consistent in terms of function or interface, many illogically spread across several applications where they should be in one (and no, I'm not saying windows is perfect but it is more consitent IMO) ... in short, despite the fact that I do appear to a fair bit about it, I just don't "get" Linux. It's a shame because if I could make the switch to it I probably would.
