    I guess you can use gaim instead. it's available on the CD.
    If you really want to use ymessenger ... you might have to do a remaster

    Hi! thank you for reply.
    I found the folow site about gaim: https://sourceforge.net/projects/gaim/

    It supports multiple protocols via modules, including AIM, ICQ, Yahoo! .etc... but I need use on audio chat ... so I'll try this program but how can I compile the file ymessenger_1.0.4_1_i386.deb on the CD?
    I know how masterize a CD but the problem is to make a CD live with included the yahoo messenger...
    which program is used for make the big file on the CD live?
    Thank you

    Check the remastering how-to in the Docs section of this site. The big KNOPPIX file is copmpressed with cloop, and is made with mkisofs.

    Sorry, but audio is not supported in the linux version of the Yahoo client. I think your only hope if you need audio can be found at the following link:

    If all you need is text, then just use gaim as mentioned above.

    Voice options are also listed above.

    Gaim is also working on a video and version version. Right now it is forked off of Gaim proper, but I think it may be merged back into to Gaim when it's working better.

    In any event you can check it out here.

    Of course you will either have to remaster Knoppix or do a hd install in order to use this.

    If you HAVE to use the Linux Yahoo client you can easily install it with Klik here

    Hi specchio127 and All,

    If you want to have a boot-able disk with a klik program
    (like yahoo messenger) added permanently -- you may
    want to consider grow-knoppix. This is easier than
    remastering. However you need to use a DVD burner,
    as a second drive, to make a boot-able DVD from your
    knoppix version with the added programs from klik.

    This is experimental so let me know if it is successful.
