If you want gaim to work with msn, then Texstar has gaim-0.71 for Mandrake 9.1, and Charles Edwards has gaim-0.71 for Mandrake 9.2/Cooker http://www.eslrahc.com/ http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/contrib/texstar/mandrake/9.1/rpms/ Texstar is urpmi enabled. For Charles' package just click on it using konqueror and the magic of gurpmi will take over. derek -- ---------------------------------- www.jennings.homelinux.net http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
