    This is a bug with the current version, that will be fixed in the next version.

    You can launch it from the command line by typing ./powder

    One you get it launched, it will prompt to "install". Say yes, and it will be added as an application to your menu and you can launch it from there in the future.

    Yes. 'cd' into the folder where you extracted tpt, and run it with ./powder

    You may be able to right click "open in terminal" from your file browser. Specific instructions are very heavily dependent on Linux and I couldn't tell you the exact steps.
