Hi to Every Body...

can any body Please tell me that how can i Install softwares in my PCLinux OS?

i have downloaded many softwares for my PCLinux from Internet, but i don't know how to install them.
 
Most software in Linux these days comes Via the Repository,Go to to KDE control center.It's pretty the basic stuff, same applies to Ubuntu, to install software you use repository, but if it's a software you download via a website, open terminal, use the cd command to move to the download directory the type :

rpm -i softwarename.rpm

the software name is the name of the software, let's assume we're installing Opera, it will be rpm -i opera.rpm

but i would advise you to use the Repo because you will most likely to get dependency errors
