amsn and traydock
 

I have aMSN installed, and it's working fine.
However, I would like to use that handy traydock thing, but I can't seem to compile it.
Just for the record: I know about gaim and all other IM's, but i would like to use this one.

Did anyone ever manage to compile this traything ?

well whats the errors? all you do is go to :
cd /msn/plugins/traydock
and then run ./configure
and then fire up amsn and go to tools-->options-->docking
and select a docking method....
but to me it sounds like your trying to say you are getting errors, which in turn you'll have to tell us...
by chance if its the tk/tcl error try specifying it with configure..
./configure --with-tcl=/path/to/tcl --with-tk=/path/to/tk

When i try to compile it ( ./configure ) it gives the following output:
Imlib and imlib-devel are installed ???

Thanks for your help!

Anyone with ideas, (or maybe even a compiled .so ) is welcome....

Still no Luck
 

OK,

I tried a lot now, but still haven't found the answer.

I cannot believe I am the only one with this problem, because I found a lot of others with the same thing. However, i can't seem to find the answer.

If anyone knows or has a clue, please help!

Thanks!

i am having a problem do the thing and it comes up this

[dean@localhost traydock]$

then i try and go 2 "]amsn and go to tools-->options-->docking"
and it says "tray icon is not compiled check plugins/traydock"
so if u no what sgoing on plz tell me
thanx

at the end of the compile, type 'make' and at the end of that, type 'make install'

or if u could send me the "libtray.so" if that works
when i run configure it says in the README it should make a file libtray.so
but it dont thats me problem i think

when i type in make it comes up this

[dean@localhost traydock]$ make
gcc -pipe -c -O -fPIC -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/home/stefan/ RPM/BUILD/tcltk-8.3.3/tcl8.3.3/generic -I/home/stefan/RPM/BUILD/tcltk-8.3.3/tk8. 3.3/generic tray.c

thenis type in make install

[dean@localhost traydock]$ make install
make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop.

what have i done rong

before typing "make install", type in "su" (minus the quotes), hit enter, enter the root password and then type in make install.

now it says
[root@localhost traydock]# make install
make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop.

lol

make install is NOT required, read the reamde... i compiled it well (u need tcl/tk8.3 and that library if u use debian, i suggest u use dslect and read carefully!! else u should download it @ google....)

i didn't get the traydock to work --> need a bigger KDE version or so.... dunno what exactly:\

but good luck m8!

I was in WinXP when posting before. I am now in Linux and have installed the traydock app.
From the readme file, you need to ./configure and make as a user.

Once that's been done, open aMSN and then dock it.

You will need tcl/tk and imlib 1.8.2 or higher.

i undestand of your post that u are running it... wich version of kde do u use?! (or don't u use kde :P)

I am using KDE 3.1.4 (it came as standard with SuSE 9.0 Professional update).
