err, kinda confused on the first step. not real sure on how to unpack the tarball. or even what tarball really is. i'm thinking about just going back to ubuntu. if i can i want to get this fixed though.

Ok, a tarball is like a zip file. After you have downloaded that and viewed the README, don't worry about that step(you've already done that). I'm going to assume you extracted it to something like /home/username/r1000_v1.05 .
Open Applications>Accessories>Terminal
type su and enter your password(when it prompts you) if your not already signed in as the root user.
type:

Code:

cd /home/username/r1000_v1.05

then type:

Code:

make clean modules

d
and then type:

Code:

make install

and lastly, type:

Code:

depmod -a

After all of that has been done, restart(reboot) your system.
If it still doesn't work after the restart, come back and let me know.
