if tht's rite cuz i have no clue if it is or not
umm when i save it in save as can i save it like in /home/autoupdate.tcl only cuz i did and it's there and ya

[tomhennigan]

So you've put the modified file at /home/autoupdate.tcl, try doing this in xterm (you need to enter an admin password):

Code:

sudo cp /home/autoupdate.tcl /usr/share/amsn/; sudo chmod 755 /usr/share/amsn/autoupdate.tcl

[sammie_114]

it's all u have no such file in your directory even tho i do which blows

[sammie_114]

ok i know wat i did wrong which is funny hahaha see ur goign to laugh i saved it in /home/usr/autoupdate.tcl not /home/autoupdate.tcl and yea i noe im useless

[kakaroto]

hahaha, yeah, I'm laughing
Usually, I'd get angry for people being such n00bs, but you're so n00b that it makes me laugh, what a pity:p
anyways, I'm glad it worked for you, now I should call this *THE* step-by-step tutorial for total n00b... should we make it sticky?

[tomhennigan]

Sticky is probably a good idea, although you could make a wiki page, and just point to that?!

[sammie_114]

yea i rly am quite the n00b but see i still might need to bug u cuz it still doesn't work..ah no being mad plzzz...god they should make a linux for dummies i would so buy tht

Hi i  watched your conversations and i downloaded tls but i couldn't understand what will i do with TLS.  am i install or copy somewhere?

[kakaroto]

undocab... READ THE CONVERSATION!!!!!! it has step by step explanations on how to do it, come on!!!!!! you can't be more newbie than sammie_114!!!!

[UNdocab]

i read step by step and i change  this line

(set baseurl "http://osdn.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/amsn/tls1.4.1")
with
(set baseurl "http://switch.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/amsn/tls1.4.1")
and saved
 Amsn is find tls address and downloaded tls packet in to " /home/undocab/amsn_received "  and said



Amsn wants to download tls every login try and saying like in picture
Now my ask what must i do ?

[kakaroto]

ok, if you've followed the instructions, it's another story, and you should have specified it in the first post. Anyways, the answer is somewhere else in the forums because of other issues with TLS... if it doesn't work for you, it could be for many things, are you using a 64 bit CPU ? if yes, then download the 64 bit version of TLS 1.5.. same would apply I think if you use the tcl/tk 8.5 version. The best thing you could do now is to download the tls 1.5 version, if it doesn't work, make sure you've read the FAQ if you use the latest tcl/tk 8.5 version, then if still nothing, try to compile TLS yourself, and if it still doesn't work, search the forum for an issue between libtls1.50.so and pkgIndex.tcl.
