I don't have an idea what the software you're talking about is or
does.  I have found that only the "supported" applications will create
entries in the Applications menu.  IIRC, the "supported" applications
are those with an Ubuntu icon beside them in Synaptic.

You could try running the application using the command line.  To
figure out the contents of a package, use "dpkg -L <package name>".
This will list all of the files controlled by the package.  Typically
the "runnable" parts will be installed in /usr/bin.
