I just ran Firestarter and it's working fine. What exactly does it say
about going to device drivers?

Also, not all programs show up in menus; some of them start up
automatically so don't need to be launched (like Tor) and some are
command-line only (like NDISWrapper), so don't need a menu entry. Some
are also just libraries and won't show up anywhere. What programs did
you install that you can't access?
