No icon and no way of running it :( But since it is already installed try running this [root@HellInc root]# rpm -qa | grep gnucash gnucash-1.8.7-1 gnucash-backend-postgres-1.8.7-1 The above is the from the default installation of Fedora Core 1 and mostly no updates applied don't remember it too clearly. The binary file is called gnucash so do an Alt-F2 and type in gnucash or just type it in a terminal window. And lo and behold you should have gnucash fired up. In my system gnucash pops up here Main Menu -> Office -> More Office Applications -> Gnu Cash Look thoroughly through all the listed menus it is bound to be there somewhere. -- Arindam Dey The mind is not a vessel to be filled but a fire to be kindled.
