yes if you have telepathy-butterfly installed
zaheerm, please never send normal users to -testing or -devel without a big warning.

How exactly do you install telepathy? Can anyone give a step by step, sorry I'm new to Maemo and just getting used to it.

Can someone confirm this for me (my understanding from reading this thread):
To get msn we use amsn right? or is there an out-of-the-box client for it?
to integrate with UI you need telepathy-haze right?
to use multiple accounts you need telepathy-butterfly?
telepathy-haze / telepathy-butterfly are in Extras-testing?
Extras-testing is full of possibly harmful software?
Thanks for any response!

Extras-testing is not necessarily harmful but it's not recommended that any user that's not familar with the n900's file system and troubleshooting. For example, files may install to the /root partition instead of /opt meaning your device will fill up with memory quickly and then you will keep getting out of memory issues since /root is on a tiny tiny partition.
Though if you really want too, you could install the telepathy-haze and telepathy-butterfly and then disable the repo. But again as I pointed out above, not all programs in extras-testing will necessarily install to /opt thus you will have to clean up the files yourself once those programs do go into extras.

Right so if I go for telepathy-haze I just need that one client and then it integrates with UI right? Could you direct me to info on how to check the root partition or as im a noob, would you recommend just using amsn? (only thing is I hate apps that don't integrate!!!)

If you aren't planning on using video chat on MSN then I would just recommend sticking with telepathy-haze and butterfly. Telepathy will integrate with the existing UI.
I believe you can use the command "df" (without quotations) in x-term (the Linux terminal in the device) to see how much space is free and used in each partition.
Sadly, I don't have the n900 myself (sadly may not get it till next year with the way Amazon is acting).
