Guest Glassblower B. Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 My girlfriend wants Yahoo and MSN messenger, though she would probably be happy with just Yahoo. I don't know much about mandrake, and do everything with GUI's, so any directions for command line need to be explicit. Can anyone offer guidance here? P.S. I am running 2005 SE [moved from Software by spinynorman - welcome aboard :)] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aioshin Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 (edited) she can login to yahoo and/or msn using gaim (simultaneoulsly on gaim) or kopete instant messenger.. though gaim, currently have no support on any webcam, I've heard that kopete has a webcam feature.... . kopete is the default IM of Mandy, so it might be already installed..

Guest Glassblower B. Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 Kopete is already installed. Many thanks. No need to worry about a web cam for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scarecrow Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 There's also SIM Instant Messenger which is a very good QT based multiclient, and also has a windows version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
