I just installed Gallery2 via synaptic. My question is: "Now what?"
I've seen instructions like go to "gallery2/README.html", but where is that file?

Please keep in mind I have not used apache, mysql, or PHP before.

All I know how to do is run commands from the terminal, and go to addresses (complete please) in firefox.

So how do I even "open" Gallery2 to start using it? Thanks a lot.

You have to go to the directory /etc/apache2/conf.d
there is a file called gallery2 that has it's first line commented because there is a "#" character at the beginning.
open that file in your favorite editor and delete the initial # on the first line. Save it.
you may have to use "sudo" to edit. I use emacs, so I type:
sudo emacs gallery2

then at the terminal, you need to restart apache by typing:
sudo apache2ctl -k restart

Now you can open a web browser and go to the address:
http://localhost/gallery2
