"No such File or Directory". What Should I do?

[thehumangod1]

I downloaded a file named "input-wacom-0.14.0.tar.bz2"
And the site says the way to unpack is to type in terminal:
tar xjvf input-wacom-0.14.0.tar.bz2
cd input-wacom-0.14.0

But when I type that into terminal it says:
tar (child): input-wacom-0.14.0.tar.bz2: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

What should I do? Am I supposed to put the file somewhere specific?

Which Linux distro/version are you using? Is there any reason for installing package manually?

Execute ls command before tar and make sure that ls lists input-wacom-0.14.0.tar.bz2 file in output.
I would suggest you to check this tutorial too. How to install Packages manually?

Before you type 'tar ...' you need to make sure you're in the directory where you downloaded in the terminal.
If you downloaded it via a web browser, it will ususally be located in /home/<username>/Downloads
So, make sure you cd to that directory first.

Do you have proper permissions? Try again with root user. And also check your current working directory, if it is same as your downloads directory.
