Gaim needs to be updated for SuSE 9.1
You can't login to Yahoo. This was working under Fedora, so the only thing I can assume is that this is an older version of Gaim and thus one that doesn't get around whatever new roadblock Yahoo put up. Preston

Preston, head over to www.usr-local-bin.org/gaim.php and download the gaim-0.77 build there. It's still for SUSE-9.0, last time I checked, but it works on 9.1 - I just installed it and I am logged into yahoo, msn, ICQ and AOL. I first tried rebuilding the source.rpm and it built fine, but upon starting gaim I was informed that msn needs ssl, which isn't compiled in. So I guess something is different there. -- Kind regards Hans du Plooy Newington Consulting Services hansdp at newingtoncs dot co dot za
