Hi,

first of all, please tell us what is your operating system

If you are using Linux, you need to open your package manager as root. Copy the extracted kart to the karts folder at ~/.supertuxkart or /usr/share/supertuxkart/data. You should see the kart as an option the next time you play supertuxkart.

correct for 0.7, IIRC; I'm not sure that ~/.supertuxkart will work with STK 0.6, however.

Only the installation directory (e.g. /usr/share/supertuxkart/data) will be used as default to find karts/tracks. Anything installed in other directories can be used by using the --trackdir and --kartdir command line options in 0.7, but not in 0.6.
