Once you uncompress the files, do this in a terminal window: make, then use
make install.
this all assumes that the program your are going to compile actually uses
a configure script or a Makefile. Your absolute best bet when compiling

documentation included inside (something i learn the hard way) and do what
it says

I think the Mandrake Updates is a separate rpm. Make sure you have it
