aMSN on Ubuntu
Submitted by madvip on Mon, 03/03/2008 - 09:57.
aMSN is a very cool instant messenger software similar to Kopete and Gaim which supports webcam. Infact I decided to install the latest aMSN 0.98b from SVN. The only trouble I encountered is to configure correctly tcl/tk 8.5 to de-uglify the fonts (i.e. using anti-aliasing fonts). I found out that I needed to install the libxft-dev package.
