Here are my questions.
1) When I installed the system, I installed a lot of different programs like StarOffice and ... etc. However, I don't know the command to invoke them and don't know where they go. Is there somewhere or some utilities that can tell me this? In windows, any program you installed will showed up in the "Programs" menu in "Start" menu. I know Linux is different so how can I find out what program is available to me and how to invoke them.
2) If I installed some programs I download from the web. Do I have to login as root to install it? If yes, after I install them, will the regular users be able to use them? If further setting need to be set for regular users to use them, what is the step to do it?
3) I always get a warning that "/dev/dsp No such device". What does it mean and what should I do to get rid of it? What will it affect my system because I do not really see how it is affecting me running any programs but it just keep coming up.
This is probably not the problem, but it's probably best to check - is there actually a /dev/dsp device (try 'ls -l /dev/dsp')? Are you using OSS at all (/dev/dsp is a sound related device)?
