Can someone aid me in installing TiLP for linux. It's confusing and it didn't work last time I tried.

It's most likely in the repos.

Press Alt+F2 and type "gksudo tilp" (without the quotes) then hit enter and type your password.

Thanks, that worked! One last thing... do you by chance know why the calculator white screens when I try to run NDless? It worked the first time but it just whitescreens now.

The TiLP in the repos is really outdated. You should compile it from source, it isn't too hard. You can grab the install script here. Before running this script, run this:
Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install git autoconf automake libtool libglib2.0-dev zlib1g-dev libusb-dev libgtk2.0-dev libglade2-dev libsdl1.2-dev gettext bison flex groff texinfo xdg-utils libarchive-dev intltoolCopy-paste that into the terminal, hit enter, enter password, give permission to install them things. That should get you the latest version of TiLP.
