I do have all arduino packages installed using pkg. In menus of MATE desktop environment (MATE is fork of GNOME) I do have arduino: Applications --> Programming --> Arduino I hope, this helps.

At a minimum, you probably want to run one of the engines, e.g. using pdflatex on a .tex file to create a text PDF. For more complex PDFs (adding things for images, or using other programs for indexing or bibliographies) you will probably want to create a Makefile. >> For a basic PDF that, you open your term of choice (gnome-terminal, I suppose), run 'which' to see if pdflatex (or one of the other engines, e.g. lualatex, xelatex, or even context) is on your PATH. If it isn't, you use find or locate to see where it is, and then add that directory to your PATH. But I guess that installing the package will have fixed that up. >> Finally, you create your tex file in your preferred editor, and then from your term you invoke the engine on the tex file, fix any errors and repeat until you get a PDF, open that in your viewer (evince, for gnome) and review, then fix any spelling or formatting errors and repeat. >> So, providing it is all on your PATH, you just go in and do it. If you want a gui front-end, perhaps get TeXworks which appears to be a package. In windows versions of texlive, TeXworks is included - but not in 'nix versions : it has additional dependencies such as Qt.
