"You have to make sure the CD is:

In the drive
Enabled (checked) in your Software Sources, under the System menu (at the bottom of the Ubuntu Software tab)

If it's checked in sources and present in the drive, you should be able to install (using synaptic or whatever) packages from it."

"Try :

dpkg -i /path/to/package.deb
