yahoo linux client voice webcam and chat?

[whiterazorblade]

does anyone have a linux client or know of one for yahoo, i need one that supports voice webcam and chatrooms if anyone can help me out thanks.

[FriedChips]

I don't know about chatrooms but:

yum install ekiga

[Perpetual]

Pidgin supports Yahoo! chat rooms but not cam or file sending (although it acts as if it supports the latter - but I can never get it to work).

Kopete supports Yahoo! cams however I looked for it in Yum and could not find it. Haven't bothered putting anymore effort into it though. I think it may be included in kde-network tools (can't remember exact name right now).

[whiterazorblade]

when ever i try to run gyach i always get this error


[whiterazorblade@localhost ~]$ gyach
gyach: error while loading shared libraries: libexpat.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[FriedChips]

try:

su
yum install libexpat.so.0

[whiterazorblade]

awesome that works the program is actluly running now but i still seem to have errors

[whiterazorblade@localhost ~]$ gyach
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "gnomebreakpad": libgnomebreakpad.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

it connects to yahoo but it doesnt allow me to go into a chat room. I dont know if this error is why either i also get some other errors when clicking on links in the program. the error that apears is :

sh: opera: command not found


thank you so much for your help so far FriedChips :-)

[whiterazorblade]

here is yet anouther list of errors, sorry im such a noob im figuring this out bit by bit. i used to run msdos servers along time ago so im not super unfamular with a command line its really just the language that im reading that makes no sence to me. im picking this up bit by bit.

have you tried Kopete?

[johnpeach]

yum provides /usr/bin/kopete
....
kdenetwork.i386 : K Desktop Environment - Network Applications

the webcam bit seems to work, but I've never got voice to work (not that I tried very hard).



sh: opera: command not found

Look in your gyach config and change the browser from opera to firefox or whatever

[Perpetual]

I have not tried pyvoicechat but with the new Yahoo! chat rooms bot protection (whatever it's called) I have only been able to use Pidgin for chat rooms. That has only started working within the last couple of months. I am not sure if pyvoicechat works with the new Yahoo! chat rooms. If they have forums, might run it past them also.

[FriedChips]

welp try:

yum install libgnomebreakpad.so

btw are you running i386 or x86_64 fedora? If you are running x86_64 this might not work, I have been unable to figure out what provides this file.. Needed it for a binary only game...
