[maemo-users] [maemo-users] installing applications from control panel -- no 'extras' folder

[From: Christine Liu]

hello -
thanks for the help. though still unresolved...

> Look for osso-xterm in /var/lib/install/usr/bin.

i found it (just using the web browser for my file system), and it's there!
however, when i click on it, it just starts the dialog for downloading
the file. i saved it to documents folder. and then in file manager,
went to the documents folder and clicked on 'osso-xterm', and said
'unknown filetype'.

it's an app/octet-stream
2.3 MB
the standard xterm app file

weird? how can i fix or amend this without a command prompt? (i have a
chicken + egg problem!)

thanks, christine
