[NTLUG:Discuss] Gaim werked fer me!

[lonny.dahl@verizon.com]

I actually had Gaim working on my computer at home.  That is, until I
completely hosed my system attempting to upgrage to KDE 3.2.  Since that
happened, I've attempted to upgrage to FC2, but couldn't get it to
upgrade...so I attempted to do a fresh install (I had saved off as much
backup as I could before attempting it) and every time, the install just
aborts after it's gone far enough to blow away what was left of my system.
I don't know if it's related to hardware or maybe that I have some bad
discs (I downloaded and burned FC2 before the attempt).  The discs passed
the media evaluation before install (my 2nd disc failed media eval, so I
redownloaded and burned it and it tested ok 2nd time around).

I'm considering leaving RH and going to Suse...can someone tell me the
essential difference between Suse 9.1 Personal and Professional?  And would
you recommend staying with Suse 9.0 until they get the bugs worked out of
9.1?  If the only real difference between Personal and Professional is the
devel software, engineering software, etc that I wouldn't need anyway, then
I'll go with Personal.  Is there really something in Professional I might
need and use, not being a software/hardware developer?

That too.  BTW, I'm running Mozilla Firefox, Mozilla Thunderbird,
Mozilla browser, and OpenOffice.org 1.1.2 on my Mac OS/X.  All work
great.  Looks just like a Linux box except for the iTunes.  :)

Now if I could just get GAIM to work.

Regards,
