software installation - Need help installing FinchTv from a package

I need to install FinchTv for a school. I've downloaded the tar.gz and extracted it. There doesn't seem to be an install readme. I've attempted to run /.configure, make, and install, on a executable in the file called `finchtv, but nothing happens.



In the notes it reads, "Note:



FinchTV on Solaris requires libCstd.so.1.  

All Solaris 8 installs include this library except for the minimum installation cluster.
The 108434 and 108435 patches will install libCstd.so.1 if SUNWlibC is
installed."


On the requirments it states it has been tested on, RedHat: v. 9, Enterprise WS release 3 / SuSE Linux: v. 8.2



So what's the deal? Do I need to download some library or something before I can install it? I'm new to Ubuntu so any help would be great. Thanks.
