chikka for linux

read the documentation, it should wind up in /usr/share/doc I think or you can just google for the website. It can be a bit tricky as you have to find a free SMS website that it can work with - a couple of years ago there were tons of free SMS websites that apps like this could script easily, nowadays they've all wised up and reimplemented the service so you can't script it :\. there's still a couple of obscure sites you can get linuxsms to work with but it's not as easy as it used to be. sigh.

good to see another pinoy on the board.

 

afaik, nobody was able to make the official chikka client run on linux. there was a java version but it depended on the MS java runtime classes (kinda ironic).

 

on the philippine linux user group list, there was a discussion way back about reverse-engineering the protocol used by chikka. somebody said he snopped the traffic and said it was relatively easy to 'discover'.

 

ciao!

Has anyone tried to install this chix plugin? I am getting an error when I try to run './configure':

checking for GAIM_CFLAGS...

checking for GAIM_LIBS...

configure: error: Gaim 1.0 and above is required.

 

I have already installed Gaim but still get the same error.

I was able to run './configure' but when I run the 'make' command I got this error:

Attached is the complete log of the error I encountered.

 

Could anyone help me to fix this?
