Mint install

I am having problems installing ZM in Mint. The package appears to install properly thru the Software Manager but does not show in list of programs. Any suggestions?
I'm new to this, but here is my take on your issue.
Zoneminder isn't so much a program as it is a service. You won't likely find it in the program list. You pull it up using Firefox or another browser, but first you need to have Apache, MySQL, and possibly some other packages installed and properly configured so they work together. Once that is done, you can view Zoneminder using Firefox at 127.0.0.1/zm or possibly just 127.0.0.1 depending on how you configured it.
I have it running on Mint 17.1 and it works well.
I found a page that helps with configuring Apache so it can serve Zoneminder. Try some of this.
