About GAIM...

Yes it is VERY nice!

But the RPMs wouldnt work for me - said i didnt have GTK2 (which of course i do).

I downloaded the source and installed iut no problem.

PS: if you install GAIM using the source, as i did, and you still have previous GAIM, when typing Run > GAIM you will still get the old game.
Create a shortcut to '/usr/local/bin/gaim'
;D

Get the source RPM and rebuild it.  GTK 2 is there on Mandrake, just that the way the regular RPM looks for it, it doesn't find it for some reason.

PS: it cant run without terminal

Open menudrake as root
Edit the system menu
Add amsn to the menu
There, now it can run without the terminal.   :eek:

Calum:
i never had any problems running it without a terminal, what the hell kind of problems are you having?

Faust:
My personal thought was :
Poster didnt have amsn in the menu.
So to run amsn he had to open a terminal.
As the terminal was running amsn if he closed the terminal so would amsn.

Correct me if any of this is wrong...
