Download the deb from lightscribe.

Then it should open up the package manager.
Then just hit install.

Hope that helps

Open terminal.
Go to the directory of the .deb file you want to install. I presume its on the desktop.
cd Desktop
sudo dpkg -i --force-all (name of package you want to install)
That should do the job
