I have found the host software and the program for Linux in the .rpm format. I have downloaded and installed alien. With the command "sudo alien -i <file name>.rpm" it indicates that the files are installed but the are nowhere to be found. With the command "sudo alien -d <file name>.rpm it indicates that the .deb file has been generated but a search reveals no file.

In the past I have placed the .rpm files in my downloads directory and the generated files were placed there also. Any ideas on how to get past this?

I'm running;
Hardy
Gnome
k8m800 Biostar MB
1 gig mem
AMD x2 3400
80 gig HDD w/66% free

can you find the source code instead of the rpm? that way you won't have to work through these strange alien behaviors (pun intended).
