If it is installed, there is probably a menu entry. Look for 'development->development environments'->idle.

Have you looked in your Python directory ? It should be lying there somewhere.

Either the idle command isn't located in your path or it isn't installed.

No need to. You're confounding two different things : you're using Python v. 2.3.3-6 and Idle v. 1.0.2
