use gaim. yahoo messenger as well as most other chat protocols are incorporated into this. Code:
yum -y install gaim |
actually ....
do this Code:
wget http://us.dl1.yimg.com/download.yahoo.com/dl/unix/rh9.ymessenger-1.0.4-1.i386.rpm Code:
yum localinstall --nogpgcheck rh9.ymessenger-1.0.4-1.i386.rpm that should fix it |
hi, thanks very much, it worked

Pretty sure gaim changed names to pidgin a couple of years ago(lawsuit). It is in the standard yum repo.
