# 2. Running linphone

Linphone can be run as three different ways:

- as normal application: in the gnome menu, linphone should appear in network sub-menu. If you are not running gnome, you can execute linphone by typing linphone in a terminal, for example. When linphone is not running, you cannot receive calls.

- as a gnome applet: by clicking on the gnome panel with the right button, add the applet. Linphone appears in the network menu. By running silently in the panel, linphone is able to receive calls even if its window is not shown. If you want the main window to appear, click on the applet. When a call arrives, the main window is shown and you will hear the ring normally.
