I downloaded tar.gz file but unable to install. I extracted files in that but there is no ./configure file in the extracted folder. Kindly help me to install it completely. I will be thankful if my problem is solved. Thank you...

When you have downloaded and extracted the tar.gz file, change directory into the subdirectory linux-capt-drv-v271-uken/64-bit_Driver/Debian/ and issue the command

sudo dpkg -i *.deb

What output do you receive?
