Hi James.

Please take a look at:

This document will explain how software packages are handled in Ubuntu.

Please mark your ticket as solved if this has answered your question.

I seem to have successfully installed the IME, but where is it located on my HD? That is, I'm used to having a desktop icon for it in Windows, with which I can shift back and forth from Hangul to English when I'm on the internet.

If you open synaptic, find the package you want to know the location of files for and open the properties for that package (right click on the package -> properties). The dialogue that this brings up has a tab for "Installed files" which lists the files that package has put on your system.

Alternatively if you know the filename (or some of it) for the file you are looking for you can use the locate command from a terminal, or the search facilities in the file manager.
