Just a FYI, yahoo on gaim ver .75 and before is broken. Won't really work, intermittent at best. They haven't been able to release a fixed version yet, but in there forums you will find a guy who setup a fixed package of version .75 that has the Yahoo patch, and the security patch. Here is the thread:
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1016282&forum_id=665 Here are the patched versions: http://www.linuxwhore.com/gaim/ These are not from the official developers, so it's up to you to decide if you trust it. Enjoy! -David PS, I gave it a shot and it's running great for me, but I'm not going through the Trilug proxy. On Fri, 2004-02-13 at 02:29, Lance A.
