The shutdown hung and I was forced to shut the power off. I'm CT guessing there are now some corrupted files, but know where to start looking. CT Can someone give me a clue how to fix LICQ? CT Thanks Instead of restarting programs over and over, I advice you read the logs, outputs, errors they give you and try to correct them. You can run licq in a terminal window and see what is wrong with it. If it is the pid file just delete de licq.pid in your home/.licq/.

Re: [newbie] Licq Question
Are you using the GUI plugin for LICQ? If you are, there are plenty of menus to do just about anything. If you're using the console mode, if you type /help I believe it is, it will display a quick help menu for you. The thing I love about LICQ, is you don't actually have to get the permission from the user to add them to your list. Helps when you wipe out your list and now you have tons of people to find again. I suggest you back up the file $HOME/.licq/users.conf every now and again, just so you have it. It has all the UINs for each user.

Re: [newbie] licq awaymesg
I have similar problems with GnomeICU. The problem is that AOL (ICQ's owners) like to keep their protocols private and closed-source. That means that any other project to create an ICQ client must reverse-engineer the protocol -- a very difficult and painstaking task. I know GnomeICU is fully compatible with all ICQ versions up to 2000a. Of course, by the time the protocols for this were worked out by the developers and the new version released, AOL had released a new version of their official ICQ client, 2000b. This is a little game AOL likes to play to annoy other ICQ client developers, forever keeping them on the back foot. I find that when I talk to users of 2000b, I can't have a real-time chat, and I have to send all messages through the server -- in other words I can't establish a direct connection, just like your problem.

Get the qt2 and licq RPMs from Cooker (http://www.linux-mandrake.com/cooker/).
We're using a quick hack with renamed libraries (renamed libqt.so.2.0 to
libqt2.so.2.0) to have the possibility to link against either version of
Qt (1.44 is still more widely used than 2.00 because of KDE), so the licq
source requires some patching.
If you don't want to download the RPMs,
cd /usr/src/licq-0.70
find . -type f -exec perl -p -i -e "s/-lqt/-lqt2/" {} \;
should do the trick - also don't forget to pass

Re: [newbie] LICQ and Madrake 6.0 HELP!
Hi Matt! I have LICQ working on my mandrake 6.0 system, and it works wonderfully! I believe I have installed the version before version 7. I would suggest that, with ICQ clients, you ALWAYS allow yourself to lag behind one version and always install the next older version than the current one. The reason for this, is that the newest version nearly always has multitudes of bugs in them. NOTE: Always download the most current version that says "STABLE" and everything will be peachy. Also, for your further information, I am having lots of problems manually compiling programs, as everything seems to tell me "recursive... quitting" and also tells me that the Make files cannot find the .h headers on my system. Since I am trying to figure that out, I've been opting to install things using RPM for the time being until I can get these "wires" uncrossed here. Anything further, lemme know. Kurt --- "Matt G.

Basicly, if there is an "official" Licq webpage I could check out for updates/quirks and stuff that I might need. Any links or info would be greatly appreciated, BTW, I'm using the default Licq that comes with madrake 5.3.
