dpkg -i yourdebname.deb ENTER
At first it complained about not having superuser privileges, I guess that was the problem here.
Anyway, a couple of my favorite .debs that I had troubles with were:
konwert-filters_1.8-11.1_all.deb
konwert_1.8-11.1_armel.deb (To have IBM characters on Telnet)
and
libvte4_0.12.2-0mh7_armel.deb (Qwerty made this one... it removes an invisible border around Xterm making use of the full screen)
I don't understand how Nokia can think a common user should know how to use the dpkg -i command.
But oh well. I'm back to being happy again! Thanks guys!

Trying for the past day or so to install some .debs I have on my internal memory card.
I keep getting "incompatible application package" errors.
I've been in Red Pill mode but I think I also have to have Chinook Extras as a repository as well.
Been looking everywhere and I can't find it. I'm using the lastest Diablo 43-7 version.
Any help?
Thanks!
