Where do I start Celestia

Post #1by Guest » 22.12.2003, 05:33

I am using SuSE and just installed Celestia, when I had mandrake, it placed an item in my start menu and I ran it from that. Now with SuSE i'm not seeing that icon, and I can't find out how to start it. I want my Celestia back :cry:

simple: open a terminal window, and type 'celestia' 8)

By the way, what Desktop manager are you using? KDE? Gnome? Other?
Did you install a RPM, or compiled the source?

What is your graphic card?

Depending on the manager, you could just right-click on the desktop and create a launcher...

For KDE there is still "Run command" (or Alt-F2) in the KDE-Menu - no terminal involved :)
