I am extremely doubtful that anything at all works with node v0.6.19 or npm v1.1.4 In fact TiddlyWiki requires at least Node v0.8.x.

I think your in desperate need of an upgrade!

try this: http://weworkweplay.com/play/raspberry-pi-nodejs/ to install the latest version.. depending on your linux distro nodjs versions are outdated most of the time.

done? => close

I'll close on the basis that it was an unsupported version of Node.js
