Open a terminal (Applications>Accessories>Terminal) and change to where the downloaded file is, so if it is on your Desktop type

cd ~/Desktopthen extract it

tar xvzf OOo_3.0.1_LinuxIntel_en_US_deb.tar.gzthen you need to change into the new directory that was created

cd OOO300_m15_native_*/DEBS/then install with

sudo dpkg -i *.deb
