Hey Athos,
I don't remember if there is a menu item coming with the package. If not, just start it from the terminal by typing:
pd
and pressing enter. You can manually add a menu item if there isn't one with the package, at least until I (or anybody else) find enough time to add one and update the package.
You are running Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid, aren't you?

Hello Athos,
The packages of Puredata (Ubuntu Repos) and Pd-extended are made in such a way that only one can be installed at any given time. This is due to conflict issues.
Thanks for the help, but I still can't manage. I tried removing the puredata package in synaptic, and then installing pd-extended from the package downloaded from puredata.info
Now, in synaptic, the pd-extended package results as installed. The version is 0.40.3-intrepid6, dimension is 0 B. But I still don't see the program in the menu.
Maybe I should try a different package than the contributed build for intrepid?

Yes, i tried typing pd in the terminal and it worked (but by mistake i wrote this only to john harrison, who suggested the same). The problem was my lack of linux knowledge and experience. :-/
Yes, i'm running 8.10 intrepid.
thanks a lot to everybody! athos
