A tgz package in Slackware usually denotes a Slackware package. You will have to install it with installpkg (as root):

Code:

installpkg <name of package>

So, in your case it would be:

Code:

installpkg point2play-small-2.0.3.tgz

Code:

&#91;root@iamsam&#58;/home/iamsam&#93; $ installpkg point2play-small-2.0.3.tgz
Installing package point2play-small-2.0.3...
PACKAGE DESCRIPTION&#58;

and thats all that happens

that means its installed

check /var/log/packages/ and you'll probably find that package is on

it just has no description thats all

You need to type Point2Play.

You could see where it's installed or follow the instructions on the transgaming site.
