1. Download from http://pecl.php.net/package/gearman

and unpack

2. under the unpacked folder,

$phpize
$./configure
$make
$sudo make install

if $phpize gives you an "not found error", install php5-dev:

$sudo apt-get install php5-dev

3. edit ini file

$php --ini

then choose a file, e.g.

$sudo vi /etc/php5/cli/php.ini

and add the line  extension=gearman.so

$php --info | grep "gearman support"

or

$php -a

7. Running on a web browser:
  a. create a script to be executed, name it cal.php
and "chmod 500" to it
  b. in same folder, created a file to be displayed, name it hello.php
and now open the browser address: http://127.0.0.1/hello.php
it should work, provided there's a gearman worker already up.
