Hi.
I have got a software in .tar format.
Can anyone help guide me in installing this software in Kubuntu.

Thanks.

First you have to extract it from the .tar format.
tar -zxvf filename.tar
Or sometimes you can right-click it in the GUI and select "extract here".

The next step depends on what's in the .tar.
