filename.tar.bz2, it is not that hard.
1) extract the archive with
$ tar -jxvf filename.tar.bz2
2) change to the directory and read the files README,INSTALL,...,
$ ./configure
$ make
$ su -c 'make install'
password:
Usually it is like that, it will depend on the archive. With *.tar.gz, the process is similar only that the file is extracted with
$ tar -zxvf filename.tar.gz
