I think we need to see the errors John - then we can decide what the problem 
is. I expect there are missing dependancies. The problem with installing from 
the source package is that you don't get the same service as you would from a 
file in the Ubuntu repositories. In the repositories, if a download needs 
other files upon which it depends, it will download those as well. From a 
source package, you don't get that advantage.
But the error message will explain (admittedly rather cryptically!) what else 
you will need to install - probably from the repositories with a bit of luck.
