Guys, I do have a question. I now this is suppose to be open source software, but after I installed the application, if I want to go make any changes into the application or source code, where in my system is it?

Re: Source Code
Depends. If you got it from the repos, you can probably get the source (assuming you have source repos enabled) with "apt-get source package", which will deposit the source, patches, signature, and original source in the current directory. (Patches will automatically be applied.) I suggest creating a new directory to work in before getting a package's source, just to make it easier.
If it didn't come from the repos, you'll need to get the source from wherever you got the software (assuming they provide it).For external use only.
