I am very new to Ubuntu and trying to install some soundfonts. One of them is in .rar. Do any of you know a way to open this type of fiel and make it operational?
Thanks,
Martin

I thought that Ubuntu natively supported RAR files. – TheWanderer Apr 09 '16 at 21:28

Open your terminal by pressing ctrl+alt+t and do:
apt-get update
sudo apt-get install p7zip-full p7zip-rar
If the installation for p7zip-rar fails make sure that you have the multiverse repository enabled and try again. When this is done you should be able to unpack .rar archives with the archive manager or if you want to do it in terminal:
7z x archive.rar
