Hi,
I'm having a problem with istallation. I can't start PlayonLinux. I think he's installed but I can't start him. My distro is Slackware 14.1 32-bit. If someone know how to fix the problem write here ... :)

Open a terminal, start it from there (typing "playonlinux") and report back what messages come out

-su: playonlinux: command not found
I don't know what happened. I was installed PlayonLinux from this code - git clone https://github.com/PlayOnLinux/POL-POM-4  .

That's the procedure if you want to fetch sources to participate to PlayOnLinux development, if you just want to use it use packaged versions (instructions a bit further down the page).

I was dowloaded POL.rpm then I switch to tgz with command: rpm2tgz and then I install the package - installpkg ********.tgz. No errors. But I don't know how I can start the PlayonLinux.

Ah yes, I forgot you're using Slackware, it's not directly supported, don't know if someone did Slackware packages

Im not sure how Slackware does package management. I know with Arch, they have their repos, as well as AUR, so maybe Slackware has a system like that?

You can always download just the regular source, and run it from there, too.
