Thanks Kassen! Somehow I was thinking that you might come to the rescue. :)
Good tips - the ctrl-0 page did the trick - now I understand how it works. I installed fluxus by running apt-get, so I didn't really download any package as such. I'll download the plain package from the site and see what I'll find.
