I am a linux noob, but I will try to help. To install a program from it's source code, refer to this post: [/url][url=<___base_url___>/index.php?showtopic=145][/url][url=<___base_url___>/index.php?showtopic=145]https://www.linux-noob.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=145
If a program doesn't put an entry in your start menu, you need to add it yourself. I use the Menue Editor program in KDE. The command is kmenuedit and you just use that to add new stuff.
Hope that helps
