sorry to post a new thread but i need help with chat on msn
How can i chat on msn in linux? I tried all of the browsers that gnome provides. I don't care if getting it to work includes hacking i just want to use linux to be able to chat in msn (www.chat.msn.com). Can someone please help?:(

Use GAIM or EVERYBUDDY
There are plenty of others, those are just 2 that support multiple (including MSN) chat protocols. |
Hi!
I'm not sure what MSN uses, but if its any thing like Yahoo!'s chat it uses java. I don't use Galeon, so I won't know how to make it use java. If you installed netscape when you installed Slackware that should do just fine. Just run the command 'netscape' to launch it. Good luck! RefriedBean PS, I use Mozilla & Opera. |
Oops, I see. It's a chat room. Oh, sorry for the lame answer.
|
In Galeon, there is a drop down menu that you just have to click on to enable JAVA.

Quote from the msn site: " At this time, MSN Chat does not work on Macintosh, Windows 3.1, Windows NT 3.1, and Unix operating systems."
Its not going to work unless you are running windows 9x/2k/XP.... |
What happens when you try?
|
Damn, they are even hating on their own OS's. Win3.1. I bet he Euthenizes all employees after 5 years.
