    If you've not already done so, you might want to check your distro repositories for a package that has already been compiled for your distribution? That's usually the best way to install software, especially if you are new to Linux.

    There should also be a file called README in the directory where you extracted the files.
    That usually has some info on anything different or extra that you might have to do.

    I do not respond to Private Messages asking for Linux help. Please, keep it on the public boards.

    It would depend on the distribution and package manager/tool that you are using. For instance, I use Arch Linux and there is an Ardour package in the main repos for it that can be easily installed with pacman, the Arch package manager.
