Hi, to install this 3 things.
Fisrt we download xampp from here:

http://www.apachefriends.org/download.php?xampp-linux-1.7.tar.gz

1- Copy the package to /opt use chmod if it is necesary.
2- Open a shell:

$ cd /opt
$ sudo tar -zxvf xampp-linux-1.7.tar.gz

And its done!
to start xampp:

sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start

Please note, that xampp is intended for development, not for production.

Handy tool, I've used it on a couple of occasions :)

The /opt directory comes with most linux distribution, anyway, if it doesnt exist, just type:

sudo mkdir /opt
