Re: Gaim 2.0!
 

I encountered the same problem, then I have uninstalled Gaim-data, then I was able to install the gaim 2.0.

Re: Gaim 2.0!
 

thanks nix_nix!
my bad there was maemo-gaim-data installed :-)

so removing maemo-gaim-data it installed even from app.manager !

Installed.

Brilliant.

Re: Gaim 2.0!
 

Any trick to install on 770 ?

I get an error that hildon-libs0 is missing (and some other stuff)

Re: Gaim 2.0!
 

I have a question: why go thru all the headaches of getting 2.0 to work when 1.5 works fine. Any advantages?

Re: Gaim 2.0!
 

Actually it is not real headache to get it to work and I no where near the level of expertise as many here. At first I could not get it to work but I realized that I had installed a file that appears not to be needed. Once I uninstalled that and reinstalled everything it works fine. In terms of better, it seems smoother (if that makes sense), and more responsive. I rate it over the other version and the guy working on it promises to make it better so I would take the plunge and get it. But as I have been told I am technically challenged so what would I know:)

Re: Gaim 2.0!
 

Actually, I'm wondering the same thing. I run GAIM 1.5 on my desktop(s) as well as on the N800 without any problems whatsoever, so I genuinely don't know what the advantages to the upgrade are.

2.0 Seems to be a bit better, a few more options, though today it seems to be crashing alot, getting the stopped responding window error and I do miss the Chat Icon though rather then the tapping the friend name to open the chat window, tapping (double tap) doesn't always open the chat window, I also miss the full screen mode as well. A special thanks to Tabster for the code to open the browser from a link/URL within Gaim.

Re: Gaim 2.0! INSTALL HELP needed
 

please help instal problem. I went to the browser because I couldn't get the instructions at http://gaim.garage.maemo.org/ to work. I installed the http://idefix.go-nix.ca/nix/gaim-dist/ 4.3 meg file. I then tried to install the
gaim-protocol-msn_2... file and it said that needed files were not installed. I thought it was due to http://maemo-hackers.org/apt/ and at this location I am not sure what needs to be installed. Can someone please post how I can complete the gaim 2 install. Thanks.

Re: Gaim 2.0!
 

Hey dude,

DId you try to install via the Aplication Manager? This is how I did it and it worked okay.

Make sure you type everything correctly.

Go into Application Manager and put in the new repositories and it should ask for a refresh. Once it does, just choose GAIM 2.0 and the protocols that you need and you will be in no time. Hope this helps.
