When I download something from MyDSL, where the heck can I find the file I downloaded? I want to get at abuse and LW on linux!!

Also, I downloaded OpenOffice, and it showed up on my desktop, but nothing else did (belive me, I looked)

any help would be awesome!

Hi

It appears that the click and load utility downloads to  /ramdisk/var/tmp .  I did a "click and load" of the clapton theme.  It not only downloaded it but it installed it at the same time.  I issued the following command at a bash prompt to find it.

find / -name clapton*

That says find anywhere in the file system files that start with the letters clapton.  Here is what it found.  There were several errors as well trying to read from places I didn't have access privileges.

/ramdisk/var/tmp/clapton-theme.tar.gz

Also if you go to the DSL homepage now there is a link in the middle of the page that will take you to the repository.  If you download from there you can store them anywhere you like.

Hi

Try going into emelFM and the name should be in there somewhere. When you see the file click on the 'mydsl' button and it will install automatically. If you havent done this already!
