    is it a .deb file? all you have to do is click on it and it should go to the package manager and install from there.

    There should be a Readme or install file in soruce code. Follow instructions from there only.
    If there isn't any such files, check the website from where you have downloaded software.
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    If you can't use apt or Synaptic to install it, or install it as a .deb file, check this HowTo for installing software under Linux:

    http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/lin...are-linux.html

    Since Ubuntu uses sudo rather than root for issuing commands, you'll need to include the sudo command with the commands that are presented in the HowTo. Be sure to check for any ReadMe files as suggested above.

    From the README *in the download*:

    Compile & Install
    USB/IP needs both kernel drivers and userland utilities.

    The kernel modules are in the drivers/ subdirectory.
    See drivers/README for details.

    The userspace applications are in the src/ subdirectory.
    See src/README for details
    From the project page's Wiki:

    Driver README

    Userspace README
