Code:

[!] You don't have any connected device. Please go to Device Manager and add your first devices.

click on [add device]

then I download... Linux(arm).. AiccAgent_Linux_arm_V1.0.23.10.solitairetheme8 126M ;-]...

now.. where do you put this file & what do you do with it.. ?
hmmmmm... How to extract .solitairetheme8 file under linux
sooo.. If you want to extract it, you need to convert it to .ga.tgz format and decompress it..

Code:

cp AiccAgent_Linux_arm_V1.0.23.10.solitairetheme8 AiccAgent_Linux_arm_V1.0.23.10.solitairetheme8.ga.tgz
tar -zxvf AiccAgent_Linux_arm_V1.0.23.10.solitairetheme8.ga.tgz

.. extracted files...

Code:

$ ll AiccAgent*
