chat


I just started using RedHat v9 and I totally got rid of Microsost O/S's and was wondering if their was a chat client that would connect to a yahoo chat server. So I will be able to chat in yahoo like I did when I was using winblowz.

Yahoo has an official one if you hunt one down. You can also use something like Gaim which is by far the best solution for an 'all-in-one' IM client.
