Hi Peter, Contrary to the other replies, I have gaim running just fine on sarge using the regular debian main sources. Be sure you have a) correct debian sources in /etc/apt/sources.list, and b) update from synaptics. Then install gaim or anything else. Do read the docs, especially the Debian Reference Manual: http://qref.sourceforge.net/ or install the debian-reference package. While there are many useful packages in non-debian archives, you don't need them for gaim in sarge. Regards, Ralph -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
