[TriLUG] tar help?

[WA Brown]

I need a little help. I cannot get a tar.gz to install. I have fought this 
and its whipped me. Can someone help?

I can unzip it and unpack the tarball but thats as far as I can go. I cannot 
get it to install. I have tried "make" and it says there is nothing to do. I 
have never really understood how to do this. Couls someone give me a step by 
step instructions? I am trying to install mpg123 on Fedora Core5.
