UBUNTU <<-- First Time User HELP

experts need your HELP jud.

our head office in Manila nagpadala og back-up PC nya ang OS is UBUNTU, which i believe Linux ni sya i have no how jud unsaon pag kulikot using this OS, like unsay My Computer ani niya or My Documents, even asa dapit pagtan-aw pilay capacity aning PC-ha, samot na sa specs.

now my boss want to download Yahoo Messenger (YM), pero di diay siya pwede. dapat mag install pa daw og WINE para mo run ang exe file sa YM. okay, na install na nako ang WINE, successfully download YM and install (though lower version lang akong gigamit). karon, ig log-in niya mo system error man? dili maka log-in then naay mo pop up na blank window pero same sa YM window sya then sa ibabaw naay 'system error ####'

unsa kahay kuwang? dili sad sya maka access sa web messenger. blank ra pud ang page.

then dili pud sya pwede ma network tungod different OS sya

all existing PCs here kay Windows XP, except this UBUNTU one.

truly need your inputs mga kapatid. my last option here is to reformat the PC pero wa man sad mi drivers gud and all. our head office suggest not to kay pang back up ra jud daw in case for brown out (naay may generator set dala)

Why not use Pidgin? mura rag YM version sa Linux. pwede pa tanan YM, MSN. Just go to Application>Internet>Pidgin Internet messenger. Pwede ra nimo magamit imo YM account ana.

BTW, pwede ra na ma network sa uban PC pero dghan pa ka himuon. hehe.. Kung wa ky patience pag reformat na lng ky dghan paka ma encounter prob ana and if first time user ka, frustrating kau!

or try Gyachi, it supports almost all of the features you would expect to find on the Yahoo Messenger! (e.g voice chat, webcam. etc) which the pidgin does not support.

@ tattee: okay na ang YM bro. thanks kaayo. though the IM window is quite confusing pa pero at least working na sya. YM man gud among main commu sa other branches other side sa email. okay lang walay cam/voice chat, basta kay maka chat lang

karon napud is how to connect to the network printer. hope you can post step by step saon ni sya. when you have time lang guys

maybe we'll try the Ubuntu and get used to it.

thanks in advance.
