Just curious: What drivers do you need that are not available on the 
default system?

Those .exe files are for MS Windows. If you have a Windows box, there is 
usually no point installing Ubuntu to run those programs. For many 
applications there are Linux programs available with a similar 
functionality. I would always try to find a Linux alternative first.

You need internet access first before you can use the apt-get command or 
any other package manager (I would recommend synaptic). And BTW: WINE 
doesn't run every exe program. You can have a look at 
<http://appdb.winehq.org/> and check if your application is supported. 
If you are talking about drivers for your hardware to get internet 
access, it is very unlikely to make it work with WINE. Then let us know 
what hardware you want to use and we can probably help you further.

If you have the appropriate Ubuntu package e.g. from 
<http://packages.ubuntu.com/> you can usually install it if you click on 
the file from your file manager. If you insist on using the command 
line, it would be a command like

sudo dpkg -i <filename>

where you replace the <filename> with the file name of the .deb file 
(you sure guessed that already). But you may need other packages as well 
because many projects use e.g. libraries from other projects and they 
are not necessarily one standalone package. If those packages are not 
already installed on your system you should install them first.

If you prefer Spanish, have a look at
