First if you are a MandrakeClub member you can install an RPM containing
mgmt.o from the download site, or if you have a Powerpack it is on your
'Commercial' CD.
Second. To write to any 'system' folder you have to do it as root. If you are
running KDE the simplest way is
KMenu>Applications>FileTools>FileManager(SuperUserMode)
You are now running a root version of konqueror in which you can just click on
the tar package to open it, and drag/drop mgmt.o into the correct location
