I see. You have not yet actually installed it. 

I suggest you start "Xandros networks". It's on the Launch menu. 

Once it has started, it will want to update the package cache. Assuming
you are connected to the Net, do it. 

Then, under "Edit" on the menu bar, click on "Setting Applications
Sources". 

Make sure that BOTH "Xandros distributions site" and "Debian unsupported
site" are selected with "x"s . You can untick "CD-ROM" if it has an x.

Having done that, it should ask to revise the package cache again. Do
it. 

Then.....under "Settings" (still in Xandros Networks"), choose "Expert
view". 

Then.....go to the search field in the upper right of Xandros networks
and search on gtk-gnutella. 

You should get one or two hits.....and then you will see in the main
window of Xandros networks that you can "Install" gtk-gnutella. 

Do it. 

Have a go at that.
