You should install at least the packages "vdr" (main program) and 
"vdr-plugin-xineliboutput" (grafical frontend) from the Ubuntu repos.
Then you need to modify most likely some config files (e.g. 
channels.conf) for your setup.

For more information http://www.linuxtv.org/vdrwiki/index.php/Main_Page 
is a good starting point.
