    The /usr/bin/bangarang is the executable. The program will start with the command: bangarang.

    The /usr/share/applications/kde4/bangarang.desktop is the "guide" file. It will add the program to the K-Menu.


    Can you find the executable and the "guide" file for the huludesktop ?

          Re: Installing Debians

          I'd chime in, but I'm living in Canada right now, and Hulu bans anyone in Canada from using it :P (which really makes very little sense, since stuff like simultaneous substitution and NAFTA means that we tend to have the same products and commercials anyways...but whatever, I guess it means I'm supposed to pirate TV instead).

          That being said, you might also want to look into XBMC; they have a very good Ubuntu PPA (in fact, it's the primary Linux platform essentially) and there are some pretty good Hulu plugins I hear. Although again, obviously not firsthand :P
