3. dpkg -x package.deb /

after step 3 nothing happens...

a. specifically, what directory is that / pointing to?
b. since i'm running from MyDocs how will i type in the path to extract to?
c. I do recall marmistrz saying we shouldn't run apps as root...is this the same as "installing under gainroot" and then later calling meecolay opt/bin/ under the same "gainroot" permission?

please help...
You did the worst thing you could ever do. If you don't know the basics of Linux, you shouldn't touch stuff like that. Wait for the GUI, or donate if you want to get the early versions and then the final one without ads. (all the people who don't donate will have the version with ads).
