Hello,

I tried Yahoo messenger 10 using wine 1.1.32.

I replaced dlls,and used Web installer of ym10.

Everything went, and logged in successfully.

The problem is, When i type something, I don't see anything. same goes, if someone sends a message, I don't see anything.

Any help?

I have attached the output.

Apologies for the thread hijack, but there is a native client for Yahoo for Linux. http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 882#360882

The only thing I am uncertain of is if the webcam works.

As you were gentlemen.:P

Webcam will run on Gyachi provided you have libjasper properly installed.

Never had any luck running YM on wine. (sigh)

libjasper? That's jpeg2000. I thought that was only needed for avatars etc.
