Summary
You will find a high level of support for various kinds of chatting in Linux. There are clients for almost every imaginable chat method. Many of the clients are available both in GUI and non-GUI versions to suit all tastes and requirements. In fact, it can be quite a bewildering experience to get hold of the client that suits you the best. But those that were covered in this chapter are quite good, and should serve as an excellent starting point for anyone who wants to chat.
There are many places where you can find the RPMs mentioned in this chapter. You can get them from the installation CDs for Red Hat, from Red Hat's FTP site, or from one of the many FTP sites that mirror Red Hat's distribution. See http://www.redhat.com/download/mirror.html ...
