Newbie - Help

Brandon Olds
Hi group,

New to Linux to begin with so please be patient with me while I learn. 

I am running FreeBSD6.1.  I am trying to figure out something really easy for the most of you.  I have looked all over Digikam and KDE and have found nothing.  Maybe it was learned in unin for beginners, but my problem is this:

I followed the directions on the Digikam manual for install.  Download the tar file, extract it.  Make, Make install.....  

But now HOW DO I get it to load up under my APPS in KDE? Or how do I even launch the app.  I know that there are some more commands that are probably understood.  But for the beginner if it's not laid out step by step it gets a little confusing.  So if someone could help me out on what I need to do next to get it to where I can open it from KDE I would greatly appreciate it. 

Thanks for you time!

Press Alt +F2 and enter "digikam" to start the program. If this does not work,
then (a) digikam is not installed, or (b) it is not in the default path, try
to find it in /usr/local/bin then.

To add it to your menu, right click the K menu and select the Menueditor. Then
you can add a new Element really easy.

If you are a new to Linux you should look for an package for your
distribution, that is a lot easier. But so or so: good luck!
