This isn't the place to come to get 'detailed tutorials'...there are many, MANY places that already have how-to guides. If you want to know how to install a source package, you need to read the documentation from wherever you GOT that package. Each source package varies in what it needs...there are no rules, the author can do whatever they want.
There are usually README or INSTALL type files in the source you download...there is quite often documentation on their websites which ALSO tells you how to install things. And also, see the LQ Rules....don't use text-speak, and spell out your words.
And to add to what brianL said, you also need to remember that an author can change the instructions WHENEVER THEY WANT TO. So doing "./configure" may work for THIS version...the next update it might NOT.
Which brings you back to "Read the instructions"...which you should do anyway.
Detailed? Okay, if you'd consider FreeBSD, and there are detailed instructions...
Or, go into any distro's page and find the way to the WIKI...that usually helps...
However, as more seasoned people have mentioned, please do not ask us to do your homework...
In the wise words "Just do it"...and if it goes sour, THEN come back, with details of the install..., being the output of LSHW, LSMOD, uname -a to name a few...
Not that we are reluctant to help, but your question points in a zillion directions...
Hehe...
And, eh, welcome to LQ...
