Not being an IM type myself, can anyone recommend a nice Instant Messaging program (preferably KDE) that can auto-detect when you go on-line with kppp and auto-login to a messaging service?
In case you're wondering, I've recently converted my father to Linux, and he has the habit of being online whenever family want to phone home (usually because he's forgotten to log off). If I have an IM he auto-logs into, we can send him messages to disconnect, or even just chat without him having to remember to log-in to the IM service.
Cheers!
John.
If you want to use Yahoo gaim is the one to use. AFAIK Kopete doesn't yet support Yahoo IM.
It also works very well with MSN, AOL, and Jabber.
