I read something about a version of the portable Gaim which is usable under Linux.

Is there somebody who knows something about this version?
Knows somebodey where i can get it?

The problem is:
A friend is abroad because his Job took him there and there are linux-pc's and no windows-pc's.
He isnt allowed to install any program.

At home (in germany) he uses the "normal" Gaim and so it i thought it would be the best for him to use a portable version of it ^^

Thanks for your answers and greetz

I had problems with the PortableGaim and PortableGiMP when trying to implement the "split directory" functionality of the portable launchers, with the launcher displaying a message reporting " was not found. Please check your configuration". This error did not occur when I simply unpacked the zip file from portableapps.com and ran it from there. After closer scrutiny, I located a line missing from the CheckPortableAppsSplitDIR section of the launcher. John checked for the existance of the executable, and set the path if the executable was found, but check for or set the path of the settings folder. Instead, the check for the GTK is there.

I know this should probably be on the Gaim site, but we use skype for work purposes. (when there is no mobile coverage) and was wondering if there was any plans to put skype into the program?!

Many Thanks,

Jon

I don't seem to be able to receive files at all; other Miranda users can try to send me thme, but they never transfer, and Yahoo users (my primary IM) have their file send option grayed out.

I can send files with no problems though. Any ideas?

Plz somebody tell me, how to set Avatar for the PortableGaim in MSN and Yahoo!, cause i can't maybe im an idiot, Plz tell me

hi,

i like miranda IM, its comfortable

what me bothers is that the icons for the different services are all the same, impossible to re/disconnect to a single service quickly.

well utf-8 support would be nice but maybe its just a plugin i need to install.

greetings

I've installed Portable Gaim on several pcs on my classroom but on three of them there are no protocols listed when the students try to add an account. We've downloaded, unzipped and used the Portable Gaim several times on those machines but it still doesn't works.

Hi all,

In fact, I'm the first time to use portable gaim, after I download the 1.5 (Multilingual), the default language of interface is English, and I want to change it to Chinese, I have already try to replace whole the "locate" directory into my portable HD, but it still cannot make any change...

And I found that, if I run the portable gaim in my home PC (My PC is already installed gaim 1.5), it can show the Chinese interface, if I run the portable gaim in other PC, it will change back to English...what should I do? Please help me...

Hello All!

I may be missing something. If I did please point me to the right place to find this information.

How can I transfer the FTP sttings on my desktop to the Filezilla on my USB? That is the FTP addresses, usernames and passwords.

Thanks in advance for your response.

I use Portable Gaim and I'd find the logging feature useful, except that every conversation takes up 4KB (my drive's minimum cluster size). After a few dozen conversations (a new one is started just by closing and re-opening the window) I quickly get up in the megabytes.

Is there something that could remedy this? Thanks.
