[Inkscape-user] Drop Shadows

I see in the Help file 'tips' that blur drop shadows are not yet implemented. But that I should read the [[usr]/share/extensions/inkscape-shadow.README file.

There is not such file that I can find in the Linux file tree.

I do see .sh files and a svg_dropshadow script. Can anyone tell be how to do blurred drop shadows in Inkscape now, in version .41?

I'm new to Inkscape and Scribus, coming from InDesign CS and Paint Shop Pro 9. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
