hmmm.  there should be a README and INSTALL files on the website (and
in the distribution).  you should read them; there's a lot of steps
to go through.

what you've downloaded are not packages, they're gzip'ed tar archives
(tar balls).  to unpack them in the current directory, try:

        gunzip < filename.tgz | tar -xvf -

i don't know what the x1 folder you're referring to is, so i can't
comment much more.
