  1. Download the moduel
  2. Use gunzip to decompress it
  3. tar -xf [file] to extract it.
  4. cd into the newley extracted module's directory.
  5. Check for the presence of a file called README or INSTALL( (view them if they exist).

For most modules, the instlal process is something like:

$ perl Makefile.PL && make && make test $ su

make install

exit
