yahoo in Gaim
 

I just installed Redhat 9 and the version of Gaim it came with needed to be updated to support yahoo, which I did, but when I try to connect I get an error that says "Could not read". I connect to my aim account very easily though.
anyone have experience with this?

And what version did you update too?

version
 

How do I find the version? I just used Redhat's up2date thing to ugrade it so I never saw a version number, i just assumed it was the most current one. any thoughts?

*bump*

i too have problems using y! messenger with gaim coming with my redhat8.0, no chatting is possible, maybe i should update that!

sooo
 

so how do i find which version of Gaim I have? and how do I update it if that's the problem?

gaim --version

http://gaim.sourceforge.net/

I think yahoo had some problems with 0.75.

okay. I have version 0.75 I downloaded the Gaim 0.77 .rpm file but have no idea what to do with it. How do i install a .rpm? And will it know where to find my current version to update it cause I don't know where it is.

You can try good old rpm -Uvh your.package.here.rpm. You may need to log in as root [su before.

That would be the trick. Basic update.
