Looking at this post: https://www.computerforum.com/threa...lubuntu-i-am-trying-to-install-chrome.245754/
It seems you're trying to do things like you would on Windows. You don't have to use .deb files to install things like you would with a .exe on Windows. You can simply open a terminal and type in your distro's commands and package you're wanting to install. Because each distro has a repository to download from. In your case if Ubuntu/Lubuntu it would be "sudo apt-get install packagename". Also when using a Ubuntu flavor you can use the app/software center to download things directly.
If you know all this, then what exact drivers are you trying to obtain that are not in your package managers repository?
