In UNIX-like systems packages for LaTeX called tetex or texlive. So, let`s open terminal and type as root:

#aptitude install tetex-bin tetex-extra latex-ucs

This will occupy about 120Mb of disk space, let`s approve it. For installation, only first DVD-disk is required. While packages are installing, let`s open your preferable text editor and type something like this:

documentclass[a4paper, 12pt]{article}
usepackage[T2A]{fontenc}
usepackage[english]{babel}
usepackage[pdftex,unicode]{hyperref}

begin{document}
This is our first LaTeX document.
end{document}

$ pdflatex newlatexdoc.tex
