Desktop for Linux Help



I just installed Google Desktop, but I don’t see anything. What’s up?

After installation, you need to manually start Google Desktop. However, after you reboot your system or log in to your X-session, Google Desktop will start automatically.

You can start Google Desktop by choosing one of the options below:

In GNOME, select "Menu" > "Applications."

In KDE, select "K menu" > "Google Desktop" > "Google Desktop."

If the above steps do not work, please see
