Looking for a good Linux Instant Messaging Client
 
I'm a Linux newbie and for my new job I have to do a lot of instant messaging to clients. They are on a variety of services, aim, icq, msn, myspace, facebook, yahoo, Google Talk, jabber, and .mac/ichat
Is there a good instant messaging client that covers most of these on one application? I am using Mandriva with KDE 4.2.

pidgin covers everything except facebook and mac/ichat

kopete supports many protocols. I am not into IM so I am not sure how many of those what you need will it support. But since you are already using kde, it makes sense to give it a try.

@windtalker10: Now Pidgin covers Facebook too: http://code.google.com/p/pidgin-facebookchat/
