how can i install a software package which i downloaded.

Of course, this is not really a question for this particular
newsgroup, since it is not about developing Linux apps.

With Linux distributions, you typically use a package manager which
comes with the distribution:http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/

If you downloaded something, it typically depends on what kind of
file. What did you download?

i downloaded an app named gnome-mplayer-0.6.tar.gz...
can you please tell me how to get it installed...
thanks buddy
