I am using Suse 9 with KDE3.2.2 and Gaim version 0.67. I delete the .gaim directory and reconfigured to no effect. Still need assistance. Clemente On Sunday 25 April 2004 20:51, Hans du Plooy wrote:

When I try to use Gaim to connect to MSN I get a pop up window with the following message: Protocol not supported
Which version (and whose version!) of Gaim are you using? The one that came with SUSE 9.0 is pretty outdated now, although as far as I know it should still work for MSN, but it doesn't work for yahoo anymore.
Sometimes I've found that my Gaim just won't connect to a specific protocol anymore (most often MSN) and then I have to delete my .gaimrc file and .gaim/ directory and reconfigure Gaim from scratch.
In addition to that, I would suggest you get the latest build from http://www.usr-local-bin.org/gaim.php

I suggest waiting 24 hours, so I can get into the office in the morning, and build 0.77 Right now I'm off to bed, cos I'm well knackered.... -- James Ogley, UNIX Systems Administrator, Pinnacle Insurance Plc james.ogley@pinnacle.co.uk +44 (0) 20 8731 3619 www.pinnacle.co.uk Personal: james@rubberturnip.org.uk www.rubberturnip.org.uk Updated GNOME packages for SUSE LINUX: www.usr-local-bin.org

I just noticed I cannot connect to MSN either (no wonder nobody's online!). Maybe 0.77 fixes that Hans -- Kind regards Hans du Plooy Newington Consulting Services hansdp at newingtoncs dot co dot za
