I already know of open source software such as Mplayer, Avidemux, VLC Player.

Also where to download these software ? DO these come in packages ?

What does i386 in their file names stand for ?

I have Vista 64 bit, Virtual Box 64bit , Intel Q9450 processor which supports 64-bit , can i install AMD64 Ubuntu ?

How to clean up the temporary files in ubuntu ?

I tried to install some software, but they dont show up in Applications menu. Where do they go ?
as Dan mentioned, i386 signifies apps compiled for 386 and above compatible processors. dunno about what temporary filesyou're talking about. to search / install applications, click on APplications -> add/remove progs. if the icons dont appear try logging out and logging in
