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
Update : I fixed the problem with the 'incompatible package'. It was as you suggested from the start, the Section of the debian control file should be user/xxx. Once I changed that, application manager was able to accept the deb files I created.
I updated all the packages in the usual URL, so you can install them all without going into red pill mode.. I also added the following packages :
cabextract, gnash-common, gnash, libswfdec, swfdec-gnome.
Install cabextract, libswfdec and swfdec-gnome if you want to be able to receive winks. You will need to go to menu account->select plugins->winks->configure and set the 'swf player command' to 'swfdec-player' and empty the arguments field. You can also try to install gnash but it runs SO SLOW on the n810 that it's not worth it at all. I wrote all that in the README.txt file with some more info.
p.s: Note that you can hide/unhide the menus with the binding Ctrl-M. That could be useful if you don't want to see tk's menubar in your window.

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.

so here it is again...
i am new to linux & the n800
i followed kakaroto instructions but iīve 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...

B.)
