I used it a little today:
- full screen is great
on the buddy list also
- no crashes yet
- built-in OSSO browser setting worked fine
Other issues/questions:
- I think the X on the Buddy list should close the app. What is your reason to stop that? Maybe make it an option?
- When I resize the text entry area, the new size is not saved. Right now I always make the vertical height less so that it is the same size as the buddies avatar. this also allows more space for the message log
- when opening Preferences window, the "left" arrow on the tabs is enabled. It should not be I think. Also pressing the "right" arrow on the tabs bar just disables the left arrow and does not go to the next right tab. (I know, I'm getting picky now!)
- from the buddy window, I selected "New" from the status window. I can't see the buttons when the accounts list is expanded.

If no one has told, you I will. YOU FRIGGIN ROCK. Nice piece of work. This is nice. It seems to just run smoother than the 1.5 version. Please keep up the work.

using custom status messages works for Yahoo but does not seem to be recognized for MSN.
not sure if this is a bug. but at least the status should be picked up I think?

How does that sound ?

sudo gainroot
apt-get install gaim
This is the same thing as clicking "Install" in the Application Manager. Unlike AM, however, you should get a more useful error message about how and why it's failing to install.
