I have noticed a number of programs I have installed via the repositories won't open up.

They are radiotime, pyradio and a bar code scanner.

I can't find where they are located or their names so I haven't been able to try to open them from the command line to see if that works.

I assumed if I installed from the repositories all dependencies would be taken care of or at least there would be a message saying something else is needed.

Anyone have any ideas?

Well, if you don't know the name of the package is quite difficult to find it, but if you do, you can "dpkg -L <name-of-package>" to obtain a list of files and find the executable.

I found pyRadio.desktop in /usr/share/applications/hildon. If I cd to that directory and do ls I see it listed, but, if I enter pyRadio.desktop I get a file not found message???

That's not an executable file. See the content of the file (with, e.g., cat) to know the name of the executable.

I can find pyRadio.py, pyRadio_ui.py, radioplayer.py an /opt/pyRadio

if I do cat pyRadia.py I see a script

I checked the file permissions of pyRadio.py and it is executable

In X-term, it would be


/opt/pyRadio/pyRadio.py


Post the messages on what it says after this.

if I do /opt/pyRadio/pyRadio.py I get no output, just a new command prompt.

If I cd to /opt/pyRadio/ and do pyRadio.py I get:

sh: pyRadio.py: not found (this is what I was doing before)

Read more of what happens after that post, but that should get it working for you.

Do you also have Extras Devel?

Either way, I would follow the suggestions with that link I posted for you.
