Need Help Getting BitCoin and Pheonix running on Ubuntu, paying 0.01BTC

[bboques]

I had a computer shop build me a cheap $600 build around a ATI 5830 and just installed Ubuntu via USB, this computer does not have internet so everything is going on through USB.

If someone can be there as a sounding board for my issues I'd really appreciate it and I''ll give everything I have generated in Bitcoinplus.com over the last week. BTC0.01.

I put the file bitcoin-0.3.23-linux.tar.gz onto the USB, and see it in ubuntu when I plug it in. What are the next steps to take? Double clicking and Extracting are not getting it running.  Is it because I'm using the Natty version of Ubuntu and they aren't compatible?

Sorry all, found out the fee for transfering BTC out of bitcoinplus is everything I generated.  I'm broke, thanks anyway.

Bitcoin miners require 24x7 access to the Internet. Solve that problem first.

You could try Linux Coin which comes with Bitcoin tools pre-installed.
