 |
|
| Code: |
Application initialization failed: this isn't a Tk applicationunknown color name "Black"
Error in startup script: this isn't a Tk applicationunknown color name "Black"
(default value for "-highlightcolor" in widget ".")
invoked from within
"load /usr/lib/tk8.5/../libtk8.5.so Tk"
("package ifneeded" script)
invoked from within
"package require Tk"
(file "/usr/bin/amsn" line 46)

Thats what I get when I try to start aMsn after upgrading to xorg 7.0. I've searched around everywhere, and I've updated to tcl/tk 8.5, but it won't work.

try slocate and make sure you have the file. i did a slocate on my system and my file isnt in that path that yours is looking for.
| Quote: | | /usr/lib64/libtk8.4.so |
if your not on a 64bit system its probably just /usr/lib. i dont know if thats the issue but maybe its just a matter of changing amsn to look in /usr/lib for the file. |

I have
| Code: |
/usr/lib64/libtk.so
|
I'm pretty sure /usr/lib and /usr/lib64 are the same because when I try to copy libtk.so to /usr/lib/ it says it's the same file. |

I don't have an rgb file either. I tried locate rgb.txt, and since my index was outdated since before I emerged xorg 7.0, it found one in the right place, but it's not there anymore  Where can I download one?
EDIT: Ok i updated slocate and I found an rgb.txt in /usr/share/X11/ so I copied it to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb and restarted X. I tried amsn once again, and I got a longer error message

Yeah so I figured that was miniscule, so I ran aMsn again, and it worked  I was hapy for a few seconds, until it signed me on and immediately swarmed me with tk bug reports. |

Ahahahaha success! I remerged tcl and tk back to the 8.4 version (i had 8.5) and now it works.
So for all you people who get this problem, the solution is:
slocate for rgb.txt and copy it to the folder that xorg.conf looks for it in.
remerge amsn tcl and tk (make sure tcl and tk are stable versions) |
