| 6 | === Adding the Telldus Key === |

| 10 | * From the Desktop, click System -> Administration -> Software Sources. |
| 11 | * Click the "Autentication" tab. |
| 12 | * Click "Import Key File" and choose the downloaded file and press OK. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | === Adding the Telldus Repository === |

| 16 | Adding the Telldus Repository tells your system where to look for software from Telldus for installation and future updates |
| 17 | * From the Desktop, click System -> Administration -> Software Sources. |
| 18 | * Click the "Third Party Sofware" tab. |
| 19 | * Click "Add". For the Apt line type the following: |

| 21 | * Click "Close". |
| 22 | |
| 23 | === Installing telldus-core === |
