I've just begun to wade in the waters of OGRE to introduce myself to game programming with C++ (I had done some Unity prior).

I'm having a bit of difficulty setting up the tutorial application as specified here:

http://ogre3d.org/tikiwiki/Setting+Up+An+Application+-+Eclipse+-+Linux

I have downloaded OGRE 1.7.3 as a debian/Ubuntu package (from the PPA/OGRE team) so it lives on my hard drive somewhere. I am presuming I don't need to do anything with CMake since it's already been compiled.

In the tutorial instructions it says under the heading Project Configuration it asks me to provide the path to OGRE but I cannot find it. I have looked in the most usual place I know /usr/bin (under /usr/bin/OGRE) and it's not there. Where is it located?

I would greatly appreciate if someone could enlighten the final steps to getting the tutorial application visible onscreen. Thanks.

Yes, I might be answering my own question and it might be lame, but I did enough research to figure out what the heck is going on.
