Where'd they go ?

Back to playing around with my linux box and I've installed Etheral and
traffic-vis (from Suse 9.0 source CD's using Yast) to see how they work
and to see what is going on with my little home network.
But now I can't find the programs. So, now comes the multi-part question ..
How do I go about finding where things get installed, both command line
and using KDE? And how to start them if they don't "magically" appear
in the "start applications" pop-up menu that KDE has provided (and which
is driving me nuts as I next plan on rearranging that darn thing properly)?
How does one determine whether a particular program is meant/designed
for a GUI interface or a command line interface (the obvious Kxxxxx
doesn't count)? I've sorted out that when downloading from the 'net, if
the program is written for X, then it essentially has a GUI interface.
But that doesn't crop up on the source cd's.
Thanks.
Mike
