Hi all I bought Linux mandrake 8.1 a couple of months ago and have just recently installed it on my second system and so far like it so much that I think in the near future I may not even keep a windows machine and just run all Linux and Mac.  I do have a couple of questions the first one which I think is very simple and I am just missing it How do you install tar.gz files I have downloaded quite a few apps for my system and I understand the rpm stuff just fine I am just a little confused about the tar.gz files.  The other concern I can't seem to get my USB HP psc750 all in one to work it seems to configure in the set up yet it won't print just wondering if there is something blaringly obvious that I am doing wrong.  I would also like to add that in the short time I have been subscribed to this list I have learned a lot of great information and hopefully as I get to be a bit more familiar with the inner workings of Linux I can return the favors and answer a few questions as well.
