Install ThinkOrSwim on Fedora Linux · Major Hayden
March 31, 2022 - It’s a big installer bundled up inside a shell script (ugly, I know). Run the script with /bin/bash thinkorswim_installer.sh and follow the prompts. I choose to install it only for my user so that it installs in my home directory.

Thinkorswim issues on F41 Silverblue - Fedora Discussion
November 10, 2024 - I’m having a strange issue with the Thinkorswim trading platform (Schwab) on Fedora 41 Silverblue. For several years, when the platform was owned by TDAmeritrade, I had it running in a toolbox with java installed. It got a little bit quirky sometimes but never had any major problems with it.

Here is what I used for Ubuntu Mate

  1. Download and install jdk-8u241-linux-x64 from Oracle website
    In my case I extracted tar.gz files to /opt/ as there was no .deb install file

  2. Point to the newly installed JRE
    sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/java" "java" "/opt/<jdk path>/bin/java" 0

  3. Install thinkorswim_installer.sh file

  4. Increased allocated RAM in settings on login window

Hope this somewhat helps.

Once Zulu is installed move on to installing ThinkorSwim:

  2. Select the "Permissions" tab, and make sure "Allow executing file as program" is selected

  4. Select "Ask each time" OR "Ask what to do" under "Executable Text Files"

[SOLVED] Thinkorswim & Java Configuration Works Once / Applications & Desktop Environments / Arch Linux Forums
Was trying to get Thinkorswim working today on my Archlinux x86_64 system using Gnome DE. Kernel is 5.5.13-arch2-1. Followed directions according to TD Ameritrade Zulu Openjdk and Thinkorswim software instructions. Obviously looked for the AUR package equivalent. First installed zulu-8-bin from AUR. This shows being part of Azul which was what the TD Ameritrade tech services rep suggested via a phone call. java -version openjdk version "1.8.0_242" OpenJDK Runtime ...
