I haven't used gnopernicus/gnome in 2 years or more now, so all I'm
about to write stands to be corrected. If you don't want to be
potentially confused/misinformed, use your delete key now.

You need to launch gnopernicus from within gnome itself. This means
actually being in gnome, and running gnopernicus from the gnome
desktop, not from the text console. I believe the run command is
alt+f2, but I don't remember for sure. If I'm correct, you want to do
something like pressing alt+f2, typing /usr/bin/gnopernicus, followed by
the enter key to launch gnopernicus. Beyond that, I don't remember
much.

Back when gnopernicus first came out, Mark Mulkayhe (spelling) did a
series on acb radios main menu, taking you through the basics of using
it with some applications, along with teaching some gnome/x basics. I
don't know how much of that is still relevant today, but if you're not
up for going through the docs, you might want to find that, and give
it a listen as a starting point. Hth somewhat.
