    I've seen those errors before myself... Never found any clear info about it. Which version of Linux are you using? Can't you use a precompiled package, or gaim instead?

    I am using gaim but it doesn't auto start or put a system tray icon automatically. besides I am trying to learn more about linux and learning to install software from source ranks high on my list.

    Maybe try an older version? Possibly one before the version you are trying to install. Kopete is nice, but it doesn't support file transfers (well, it didn't when I last tried it). If you are going to use it with MSN, you might also try amsn, I've heard it is nice.

    Oh, and you can configure Gaim to put an icon in the sistem tray (it might need a plugin, I'm not sure). As for it running at startup, maybe try saving the session before turning the computer off or rebooting.

    well the only other version of kopete that can use msn (after they changed the standard) is 0.9.3. so I downloaded it and got an error even faster than 0.10.1

    ./configure :
    Code:
    checking for Qt... configure&#58; error&#58; Qt &#40;>= Qt 3.3&#41; &#40;library qt-mt&#41; not found. Please check your installation!
For more details about this problem, look at the end of config.log.
Make sure that you have compiled Qt with thread support!
    funney thing is , I have qt and its develop package installed. (0.10.1 saw this)

    as for gaim - yes it does have a system tray and yes i have it turned on but it won't display until i go to the properties dialog (i just have to go there not do anything there). as for auto starting sometimes it does sometimes it doesn't (i've never seen anything like a 'save session' button)

    granted I could just leave everything as is, but thats not what linux was made to do.

    Look at the plugins inside gaim (configurable in the GUI), there is one for a system tray icon. Don't shout too fast it's not working - often all it needs is a bit configuration

    hehe maybe you posted a bit fast.

    but I did give it a second look through without any options like "system icon on run not when you click on prefrences"

    I'm going to go look through gaim's buglist to see if it says anything about this.

    Alternatively, you can launch applications when starting X by editing ~/.xinitrc if you use startx, or ~/.xsession if you login with a display manager. Something like this would work in either of those files, if I recall correctly:
    Code:
    gaim &
exec foo-window-manager
    As for the question about Kopete 0.10.1, what options are you passing to the configure script?

    You could also dive into the source code and fix the errors it's getting on the file index.docbook at lines 101 and 1878. That might be a bit difficult, so an alternative would be to run
    Code:
    ./configure --help
    to see if there are options to not install the documentation, or if you don't speak French, to compile Kopete without French language support, since doc/fr seems to be some French documentation.

    Also, Google the error ("index.docbook:101: parser error : Entity 'traducteurPatricePawlak' not defined").
