Installing a program in Linux is a little bit different than in Windows.

 

It depends whether it is a .rpm file or a .tgz archive,

check in the FAQ, everything's explained.

 

Alternatively, I strongly suggest that you configure your urpmi sources. This is a very simple procedure, that will then enable you to install virtually any program in one click from the Mandrake Control Center or in konsol with the urpmi command + name of the prog you want to install. Check urpmi in the faqs and click on easy urpmi on this page (top) for assistance on how to configure your urpmi sources.

 

Welcome to Mandrakelinux! :)
