Hi Alexandra,
I don't know what you mean by 'models', so I will leave that for another
person.
The install in Mandrake Linux is made easy by RPM's . Those are files that
contain almost everything you need to install a program. Just open it as root,
through RPMDRAKE or Kpackage, and you can quickly install it.
The other way is through downloading the source files, using 'tar' to unpack
them, and then go through configure (./configure), make and make install to
get the program installed.
