If i compile my.tex file using the command:
latex my.tex

I am getting this error:

! LaTeX Error: File `pause.sty' not found.

Type X to quit or <RETURN> to proceed,
or enter new name. (Default extension: sty)

please assist.

This is most likely not a Ubuntu/Linux problem. It just means that latex cannot find the .sty file, because its either not installed or not on the path latex looks at when compiling. You should consult a latex manual or latex forum.
