Re: aMSN on maemo - Nokia N810, N800 and N770HE
 

hhaaa, gadget25, I have a solution for you! I still don't know yet why it doesn't want to install but I now know why it installed on my n810 without complaining about the 'incompatible application package' error. You just need to enable the red pill mode. This is much easier than gaining root access.. here's how you can do it :
1 - open application manager
2 - click on the menu then 'tools' then 'application catalogue'
3 - Click on the 'New' button
4 - in the 'Web address' field, delete the 'http://' and write 'matrix'
5 - click on the 'cancel' button
6 - a popup will appear asking you "Which pill?" and two buttons, one "red" and one "Blue". click on the "Red" button.
7 - now close the application catalog window
8 - go to http://kakaroto.homelinux.net/~kakaroto/n810
9 - install the packages in this order : tcl8.4, tk8.4, tcltls, libsnack2, amsn
10 - go back to step 1 and when asked to choose which pill, click on the "blue" button this time and you're done!

p.s: I'm still trying to understand why it's incompatible when not in red pill mode.. if anyone can help.. please.. tell me.

hehe, cool Gadget25, glad you made it work! :)
I'm no 'red pill expert', but as far as I know, red pill means 'advanced mode', the only differences I've seen so far is that :
1 - in red pill, when you click on the 'info' for a package, you can see its dependencies
2 - the check for compatible packages is disabled...

As explained on aMSN's forums thread : http://www.amsn-project.net/forums/v...ic.php?p=26901

Greetings:

With my N800 using 2008 OS, I tried to install amsn and it states that I'm missing these files: in this order : tcl, tk, tcltls.
Where do I the package for these files.

Regards Robert

The installation process is explained in this thread with the link to dowload all the needed files...:confused:

Re: aMSN on maemo - Nokia N810, N800 and N770HE
 

im getting problems installing tk8.4, it states that im missing hildon-libs0 and that it is conflicting with osso--af... anybody with the same problem or with a solution ?

Re: aMSN on maemo - Nokia N810, N800 and N770HE
 

hello guys
hope you are all well...

i tried posting this yesterday but the post disapeared on me???
so here it is again...
i am new to linux & the n800
i followed kakaroto instructions but i´ve never done this before.
its not installing.
1.)
i downloaded the files (tcl,tk,tcltl & amsn)
from the link to MyDocuments folder
2.)
tried installing but i got a message from the application manager saying it was incompatible.
3.)
so i proceded to x terminal and typed:
dpkg -i tcl8.4_8.4.13-1bora1_armel.deb
x terminal replied :
superuser priveleges required
4.)
so i entered :
sudo gainroot dpkg -i tcl8.4_8.4.13-1bora1_armel.deb
x terminal replied:
root shell enabled
and it ended saying /Home/user #

so these are my problems...
A.)
i still haven´t installed non of the programs.....(they simply never opened....)
B.)
what am i supposed to write (word by word)

I would really really apreciate it....
thanks in advance...hugs
:eek:
