Use trillian if you can anyways.

i have to get some program called crossover to run trillian but they ask too many questions like "what is running trillian on linux worth to you?"

Trillian is better anyways so it would be worth it.

Answer to question 1

GAIM :)

supports AIM, MSN, ICQ, IRC, Gadu-Gadu, Open Napster

GAIM does not support file transfer through MSN though nor does it support icons.. but for that you can use amsn instead :)

http://amsn.sourceforge.net/index.php <-- aMSN


Answer to question 2

open up a terminal and do the following,

su
knx-hdinstall


Answer to question 3

after installation.. open a terminal and do the following

su
xf86config

then save changes youve made to xf86config then hit CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE

are you using knoppix? if so, then press F1 when you boot it up, it shows boot commands to set up the screen res.
