have you tried openzaurus? gaim might work better there..especially in gpe.

search a bit, something will surely present itself

Gaim worked with MSN the last time I tried is using both OZ/Opie & OZ/GPE.

You need to make sure you install the msn plugin of course.

it works...period.

if it doesnt, its user knowledge deficit.  it takes a bit to know how to use it but once you figure it out, it works.



use the files i posted.  not the updated.

gaim works.  there's a bunch of libs you need to get it working (but all of those are avaliable on the gaim feed.)  after you've got it installed (with the libs) you'll probably also need to go into the console and make some symlinks to libpng -- follow the instructions on the z gaim page.
