The idea of a bigger alternative is great for newer hardware but I cannot use Gaim and Mozilla browser on my computer. I still use DSL with Firefox and the web based client for chat. Where can I find a tutorial to set Gaim correctly?

I use Gaim nicely with DSL-N. I use IRC, ICQ, MSN and GG protocols without any problem. The only problem I once had was that things (GG in particular) couldn't log on if it was using a proxy server. I use IRC via an SSH tunnel with no troubles though.

I'd like to help more if I can, but it has generally worked without any problems, sorry.

I used Live CD RC2 and the following error after log in hotmail username account:
"SSL support for MSN. Please install a supported SSL library."

DId u install GAIM from binary package or the built in one on DSL-n?
