Hello, I am sorry to bother everybody but I have been trying to solve this problem to long with no success, it is probably something really simple but I simply cannot find the answer. I have a question on how to get bioconductor running properly on Ubuntu 11.10 as I have tried everything it seems like and I keep on getting this message. But before I go farther can you please email and say that you will help me with this because nobody seems to want to help or know how to. "Cannot find Tcl/Tk package "Tktable". affylmGUI cannot conitnue...." I have installed BWidget like it tells me to. I have tried to install Tktable 2.9 but cannot. When I try to do so I cannot run the make file properly. Then I have ran ./configure > output and gotten /Tktable2.9$ ./configure > output > configure: WARNING: "Cannot find Tcl configuration definitions" And at this point I have really no idea what to do...So please some one help me.... Below is what happening when I try to install Tktable 2.9 I might be a bit absentminded because I am a PhD student and am quite busy but I hope I can answer back as soon as someone gets in touch with me.

Then I have ran ./configure> > output and gotten /Tktable2.9$ ./configure> output >> configure: WARNING: "Cannot find Tcl configuration definitions" Before going down the 'install Tktable from source' route, I'd check with my package manager whether there was a tktable package available; it seems like there would be http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=tktable If that were to fail, then I might download the 2.10 version from http://sourceforge.net/projects/tktable/files/tktable/; 2.10 was apparently released in 2008 so doesn't seem too cutting-dedge. I see this Tktable2.10> ./configure checking for correct TEA configuration... ok (TEA 3.7) checking for Tcl configuration... configure: error: Can't find Tcl configuration definitions Since I have tcl/tk installed (right)? I went looking for tclConfig.sh (because in the README it says that it will use tkConfig.sh, and I'm guessing that it is also using something called tclConfig.sh) Tktable2.10> locate tclConfig.sh /usr/lib64/itclConfig.sh /usr/lib64/tclConfig.sh and take a peak at Tktable2.10> ./configure --help so guess at Tktable2.10> ./configure --with-tcl=/usr/lib64 checking for correct TEA configuration... ok (TEA 3.7) checking for Tcl configuration... found /usr/lib64/tclConfig.sh checking for existence of /usr/lib64/tclConfig.sh... loading checking for Tk configuration... configure: error: Can't find Tk configuration definitions which is a little progress, so repeating but for tkConfig.sh Tktable2.10> ./configure --with-tcl=/usr/lib64 --with-tk=/usr/lib64 ... config.status: creating Makefile and then Tktable2.10> make seems to work. I would go on to say make install, but would want to make sure that I did not need to change, at the ./configure stage, --prefix or --eprefix for my system.
