I'm a noob to Debian. I just installed the O/S on my PC. I'm impressed so far but I'm trying to get my wireless network card to work (Linksys WMP54G). I installed the wireless tools and downloaded "wireless assistnat" from sourceForge.net. The file is called "wlassistant_0.5.4a-2_i386.deb" and is sitting in my home directory. My question is how do I install this. From my desktop, I click on the file, which appears to be compressed, and three windows open up, two appear to be emplty. The third contains the following three files; control.tar.gz, data.tar.gz, debian-binary. When I click on the files, not much happens. How do I install this? I know binary files should be easier to install than "source packages", which are supposed to be compiled prior to installation.
