so i installed the .deb package in ubuntu 12. progress barrs indicated things were installing and i
got a message that it finished. ok. so how do i run the program? it's not in any of my launch menus
and no desktop link appeared. can't seem to find it anywhere.

Try in the terminal, or by the "windows key" ...

Code: Select all

xnview
Should be here:

Code: Select all

 which xnview
/usr/sbin/xnview

thanks, oops66.

tried terminal command but got:

Code: Select all

No command 'xnview' found, did you mean:
 Command 'vnview' from package 'via-bin' (universe)
 Command 'xview' from package 'xloadimage' (universe)
 Command 'nview' from package 'nvi' (universe)
 Command 'nnview' from package 'nn' (universe)
 Command 'xfview' from package 'xfe' (universe)
xnview: command not found
also looked in /usr/sbin and found no xnview.

thanks again,
BabaG

Maybe you can try again from here, with the right MP Linux version 32 or 64bit:

PS: You can also install it from the .tgz file
