I can unzip it and unpack the tarball but thats as far as I can go. I cannot get it to install. I have tried "make" and it says there is nothing to do. I have never really understood how to do this. Couls someone give me a step by step instructions? I am trying to install mpg123 on Fedora Core5.

is the tarball source code? In this case you have to run `configure` then make.

if it's binaries, it will be a set of files starting at /
If you unpack it in some directory, possibly it will have a script to move it to /
