Installed games... Where are they?

[DerMika]

First let me say this: i'm a noob at linux who was already very happy to get 3d working on his computer...

I installed some games from the games list in this forum, like TuxRacer. But i cannot find a shortcut or anything to it. How can I start the games i just installed?

command line:
Applications->System Tools->Terminal

On the prompt:

>> tux[TAB]

thats the tab key. On pressing tab you should get a list of all apps whose names start with tux. Then type the full name and press enter.

OK that worked, thanks!

try looking in /usr/local/games for commercial games or /usr/share/games for open source linux games.
