so please help me (and don't tell me about wine and neither about vmware or win4lin i told u i hate windows so am not trying to emulate it )...
and i use alsa
thanks slackers and linux s users

AFAIK, Voice over Yahoo isn't supported yet. Most likely won't be supported til Yahoo make is supported. Their own client they make for *nix systems doesn't even support it so until they release the info how it works, etc, it won't be supported.

So I won't mention any emulator or wine, but I think you should catch the drift... even though, I've never seen anyone use these for Chat type programs, etc.

that was straight ... enough i knew the answer would be like that somehow ..
but i think there is alternativesof the yahoo voice somewhere and if not i will have to accept the reality and i will try to use the emulators or virtual whatever something ...
but thanks am new kind of away to this site but i hope that everybody will be straight like u
i hate to be misslead

Check out http://www.gnomemeeting.org/ (Their site appears to be currently down). I believe you can communicate with Microsofts Netmeeting through this.

LinPhone works with MSN messenger.
Gnomemeeting does indeed work with Netmeeting.
There is also a Linux client for RogerWilco.

For voice and WebCam support for yahoo messenger you can try gyach :
1. Download http://www.politicalcrossfire.com/te...nstall.tar.bz2 , and save it to your home directory (important!).

2. Run these commands in the terminal, in sequential order:
Code:

tar -xjf gyach-install.tar.bz2
cd gyach
sudo ./install

You can also use Gaim vv http://gaim-vv.sourceforge.net/

It seems that new version of Yahoo! is ignoring the current version of Linux messengers for voice chatting
I don't know , but seems to be a race for putting Linux in background!!!
I know they can't do that , already people love Linux and use it as Desktop a lot
In web servers , there is nothing to say !!!!

I couldn't enable voice in gaim-vv , seems to be unavailable for yahoo! for me , maybe something's wrong with my installation

Thanks dive , you remind me Nirvana , Dive in me baby!
