How do you install packages with tar?
The 'tar' utility is not usually used to install packages; it would consist of a source package that has to be configured, compiled, and then installed. The tar file you receive usually is in a compressed format as well.
The sequence of events with a tar file (sometimes called a tarball) is to do the following:
- Uncompress the tar file if it is compressed
- Extract all of the files into a directory with 'tar xvf filename'
- Run the ./configure command in the root directory of the package if it exists
- Run the 'make' command on the result
- Run the 'make install' command if everything compiled and linked successfully.

How do you install Compiz on Ubuntu 8.10?
The CompizConfig Settings Manager, sometimes referred to as CCSM by fans of abbreviations, is a Compiz configuration utility created by the Compiz Fusion project. Why this configuration utility isn't installed by default with Compiz on Ubuntu systems is a mystery to me, because it provides an excellent interface that simplifies activating, configuring, and deactivating both Compiz and Compiz Fusion plug-ins. CompizConfig was designed solely for the purpose of configuring Compiz plug-ins. It is able to make use of some information about the internals of Compiz plug-ins and the capabilities that they provide and can therefore identify both dependencies and potential conflicts between plug-ins.

apt does not download source files by default, only binary packages. The packages are stored in /var/cache/apt/archives; the contents are installed in various directories, depending on purpose.
You can fetch the source for a package by using the command "apt-get source <packagename>." The source tarball will be downloaded to the current directory.

Why is my wireless card not recognized by Ubuntu?
Unfortunately, many wireless cards are still not supported in Linux distributions, because the manufacturers refuse to release any product specifications in order to write drivers.
There are a couple ways around this problem:
1. Install a proprietary driver package, such as MadWifi or bcm-fwcutter. If you can connect to the internet using Ethernet, these should be easily installable from Synaptic.
2. Install ndiswrapper, and "wrap" an existing Windows driver. This option is less desirable, but it is still the only way to get some devices to work. ndiswrapper can also be installed through Synaptic. You will also need a Windows 2000 / XP driver forthe card.
