hi!

Whenever a program is installed from root (rpms or tar), in which which
location is it stored? And where is the executable? (Example:- in Windows it is
c:\ Program files\ ) I need to create a shortcut for alsaplayer, it runs fine
from the console when I type 'alsaplayer' but a shortcut on the desktop would be
a big help.

thanks,

usually /usr/bin
type "which alsaplayer" to find out where it is.
