I know about talk, but usually this sends an invitation first, which the 
user must respond to. And I want a window to open immediately. Besides, the 
invitation appears in one of the many open terminals, I had to seach a 
while until I found the right one :)

I just tried ktalk, didn't knwo about that before. It opens a console in 
talk mode when accepting an invitation (but again I have to accept it 
first), but nothing happens in it, the graphics does not get updated, I see 
my desktop in the window.
