I've tried following the guide but I'm still having trouble with the 
installation. I think that the trouble is with the following step I've 
written below, that makes the nw file executable:

        In the TiddlyDesktop folder, update the file permissions of the 
Linux TiddlyDesktop Linux executable.
        sudo chmod +x nw

When I follow through with the following step, which is:

        Finally, start up the TiddlyDesktop executable application up on 
your Linux PC.
        ./nw 

I get this message in the terminal:

       ./nw: error while loading shared libraries: libgconf-2.so.5: cannot 
open shared object file: No such file or directory

Thanks in advance.
