| | I've been using linux (kubuntu and just installed sabayon) for the past month and am very happy with it but for the fact that I can't use gtalk with it. Gtalk is my favorite chat client and I don't like chatting using a browser. Does anyone know of a way to get gtalk to work in linux? |

If you are on Kubuntu, you should have Kopete (its installed by default). GTalk uses Jabber, so create a new account by clicking Settings > Configure > Accounts > New... For your Jabber ID enter your full email address (including @gmail.com or @googlemail.com). Also enter your password, then move on to the Connection tab. Check the three tickboxes (use SSL, allow plaintext passwords and override defaults), enter talk.google.com for the server, and 5223 as the port number. Click Next, Connect then Finish and you should be done. Kopete should also connect automatically each time you login, unless you unticked that box.

You can also install GAIM and use Jabber there. Google has a page on how to configure GAIM for Google Talk.

Get The Word Out - Google Talk

Google Talk
This is a new Google program (4) Google Talk Google Talk is this new instant messaging and audio messaging system that Google

thing that the Google Talk has no advertisements, this also means that it's funded very little
and that there's no extra stuff like video conferencing and file transfer, but you can do that
stuff if you download a third-party client (they allow you to do that). They provide y....
