You need to give us some context for this.....Do you have Linux installed? If so, what distribution?
Very general answers:
Linux typically has drivers built in
For most things, the SW installed thru the package manager
"Compiling" is not a Linux term--it typically is used to mean the whole process of building SW from source. The precise definition is narrower. Go to wikipedia.
Add new devices? What kind of device?
