.pkg.gz packages

807559Apr 1 2006 — edited Apr 3 2006
Well, I'm just a newbie in *nix systems, and I have an issue. I'm trying to make my sound card work, and I have downloaded driver oss-4.0_i386.pkg.gz. The question is: how to install it? :) The manual for the driver said to login through console and to type

pkgadd -d oss-4.0_i386.pkg

Okay, but it caused the error. So, I think that I have to unpack GZ archive but gunzip said that there is not a gzip archive...

So. My question is: What I'm supposed to do? If no action required excepting

pkgadd -d oss-4.0_i386.pkg

where the driver must be to be found by pkgadd..?
