Hi,

What feature is not available in pidgin that you absolutely need to use in Yahoo Messenger?

Hi,

That is an excellent question.

In that case, I think you should use gyachi instead. It is a replacement for Yahoo Messenger and pidgin. gyachi will allow you to easily access the Yahoo chat rooms and will give you a chat room list to choose from.

Please download gyachi at this location:

http://webupd8.blogspot.com/2009/05/howto-linux-ubuntu-gyachi-yahoo.html

Choose this package which was created for Ubuntu 9.04:

https://launchpad.net/%7Eloell/+archive/ppa/+files/gyachi_1.1.70-1%7Ejaunty_i386.deb

Kind regards,

Mark
