In a console, you can type the following,... rpm -ivh "name of rpm", and press enter.
In KDE, you can open konqueror, browse to the directory where the rpm is, and click on it. Or, in a console, type kpackage, and when the GUI opens, browse to the location of the rpm package, and select it. Unless the package has dependancies, or was not written for your version of Mandrake, it will install without other problems.
