[ubuntu-uk] Getting Xgnokii to work?

[Gordon Burgess-Parker]

I've installed Xgnokii from the Ubuntu Software centre, hopefully to 
administer my Nokia X3 phone.
It's installed OK but when I click the icon nothing happens except a 
very faint splash screen in the middle of my screen that just disappears.
The User guide http://gnokii.org/docs.shtml doesn't seem to be much help 
as it talks about copying files from the installation directory but 
doesn't tell you where the installation directory is located!
Anyone know anything about this app?
