Phew,


tar.bz2 is most common at first a tar.bz2 file which contains 
anything, not necessary a program.

If it is a program, this are most probably the programs 
sources, which you have to compile by yourself; this is not 
the easiest thing for beginners.

First of all, you have to extract this file. Try 
right-clicking on it and choose something like 'extract 
here'.

Have a look to the then shown directory and tell us more about 
the contents.

On the other hand, which program do you want to install? If 
there are rpm-files for it, you should prefer using them 
instead of compiling it by yourself.


        Gru� / regards
