You should use Kinkatta. It's a native QT/KDE2 program for AIM. The developer is a hell of a nice guy and the software rocks. He does all his development under SuSE so it is very SuSE compliant :) I've been using it for sometime and I love it. I would also ditch KDE 1.X .. 2.2.2 is very speedy and extremely nice. * Raúl Gutiérrez Segalés (oxford@campoalto.edu.py) [011205 10:06]: -> ->Has anybody tried any alternative to gaim (to use msn messenger only) that ->doesnt work on top of gtk+, cause I need a messenger clone for workstations ->that have kde1(SuSE 7.1)... installing gtk would be to much trouble, plus ->there is the stability issue as well. -----=====-----=====-----=====-----=====----- Ben Rosenberg mailto:ben@whack.org -----=====-----=====-----=====-----=====----- "Technological progress is like an axe in the hands of a pathological criminal" -AE
