Chapter 8. Client Platforms
8.3.2. Installing the Linux Client
The Linux client is distributed in three different kinds of packages. One that can be installed using the
RPM package system, one in the DEB package format, and one in compressed tar archive form for any
Linux distribution.
If you need more information than mentioned here, read Section 7.7.
In the instructions below, we will assume that you have unpacked your Client Bundle to
~/tl-4.3.0-clients.
8.3.2.1. RPM-based Installation on RPM-based distributions
The RPM-based client can be found in the directory client-linux-rpm in the Client Bundle. It is
suitable for systems such as Red Hat, Fedora, SuSE, and Mandrake. Perform the following steps to
install it on a 32-bit system:
$ cd ~/tl-4.3.0-clients/client-linux-rpm
$ sudo rpm -Uvh thinlinc-client-4.3.0-4538.i686.rpm
or the following steps on a 64-bit system:
$ cd ~/tl-4.3.0-clients/client-linux-rpm
$ sudo rpm -Uvh thinlinc-client-4.3.0-4538.x86_64.rpm
or the following steps on a 32-bit ARM hard-float system:
$ cd ~/tl-4.3.0-clients/client-linux-rpm
$ sudo rpm -Uvh thinlinc-client-4.3.0-4538.armv7hl.rpm
or the following steps on a 32-bit ARM soft-float system:
$ cd ~/tl-4.3.0-clients/client-linux-rpm
$ sudo rpm -Uvh thinlinc-client-4.3.0-4538.armv7l.rpm
8.3.2.2. DEB-based Installation on Debian and Ubuntu based distributions
The DEB-based client can be found in the directory client-linux-deb in the Client Bundle. It is
suitable for systems such as Debian and Ubuntu. Perform the following step to install it on a 32-bit
system:
$ cd ~/tl-4.3.0-clients/client-linux-deb
$ sudo dpkg -i thinlinc-client_4.3.0-4538_i386.deb
or the following steps on a 64-bit system:
$ cd ~/tl-4.3.0-clients/client-linux-deb
$ sudo dpkg -i thinlinc-client_4.3.0-4538_amd64.deb
or the following steps on a 32-bit ARM hard-float system:
