Running Mumble
If you have installed Mumble through your distributon’s package repostory, you should be able to find Mumble in your start menu. No additional steps necessary.
Running Murmur
Murmur should be run from the command line, so start a shell (command prompt) and go to wherever you installed Mumble. Run murmur as
murmurd [-supw ] [-ini ] [-fg] [v]
-supw: Set a new password for the user SuperUser, which is hardcoded to bypass ACLs. Keep this password safe. Until you set a password, the SuperUser is disabled. If you use this option, murmur will set the password in the database and then exit.
-ini: Use an inifile other than murmur.ini, use this to run several instances of murmur from the same directory. Make sure each instance is using a separate database.
-fg: Run in the foreground, logging to standard output.
-v: More verbose logging.
