Tweetdeck on ubuntu 64-bit

Right, the whole world's into twitter. The website is a little difficult to manage when you have a lot of people to follow. The software solution (isn't there always one!) is TweetDeck - unfortunately it runs under Adobe Air, which (surprise, surprise) is available for Linux but 64-bit architectures. So your computer requires a little bit of persuading ...

... you need a few libraries - issue the following commands at the terminal:

$ sudo apt-get lib32asound2 lib32gcc1 lib32ncurses5 lib32stdc++6 lib32z1 libc6 libc6-i386
$ sudo getlibs -l libnss3.so.1d
$ sudo getlibs -l libnssutil3.so.1d
$ sudo getlibs -l libsmime3.so.1d
$ sudo getlibs -l libssl3.so.1d
$ sudo getlibs -l libnspr4.so.0d
$ sudo getlibs -l libplc4.so.0d
$ sudo getlibs -l libplds4.so.0d
$ sudo getlibs -l libgnome-keyring.so
$ sudo getlibs -l libgnome-keyring.so.0
$ sudo getlibs -l libgnome-keyring.so.0.1.1
$ sudo ldconfig

Then install Adobe Air from here

download, then move to your home directory,

right click - properties - make executable

and type

$ chmod +x AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
$ sudo ./AdobeAIRInstaller.bin

Then grab the 'air' file from here, and install using Adobe Air

Happy tweeting!
