As long as you are using the location that the config files should be, and use the same folder, in this case .gaim it shouldn't have any issues picking them up.

As for finding Gaim 1.3.1, chances are you won't be able to, though I won't say it's impossible. The Pidgin repositories on Pidgin's SF project only goes back to 1.5.1 and Gaim's SF project repository is empty. Not only is is bad security to use 1.3.1 as there are a lot of fixes for security since then, as well as some required fixes to allow certain protocols to continue working.

I have two issues:

First, I am porting from Windows to Linux, and for now, am porting GAIM 1.3.1 over to Windows on a Virtual Box (thus issue 2.) I need to know how to get GAIM 1.3.1 to recognize my user data in the .gaim folder (which I cannot recreate by the way.) I see no configuration files in the program files for gaim.

Second, I am not comfortable with the newer version of Gaim, Pidgin. I prefer the interface and features of Gaim, and want to find the linux version to download. Your website is EXTREMELY difficult to navigate, unfortunately, and I cannot find older versions to download, or any mechanism by which to find such on the website. Could you please provide a link to older versions, or an FTP site, or something where I can acquire a copy of Gaim 1.3.1 for Linux (Ubuntu).

Thank you.
