Looks like you are receiving a message right away and gaim is crashing on that. Could be sound related. To test that, you can launch gaim with 'gaim -a' and change the preferences to no sound. You don't happen to use arts do you?
with gaim -a and no sound gaim works in my process table there is artsd, is that the problem?
The problem is libao. By default, gaim uses libao to play sounds with the various sound daemons. However there is a known bug in libao when working with arts. You can either disable sound, or give a manual command to play sound through arts, so gaim won't try to use libao. These are done in gaim sound preferences. Please let me know if this works for you.
http://gaim.sourceforge.net/faq.php#q23 That entry mentions how to manually set your sound command, so it won't use libao.
it works for me thanks don
Closing then. Up-upstream libao bug. If you're curious the bug (filed by me in April) is here: http://trac.xiph.org/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/ticket/644 Other than re-assigning it, it hasn't been touched.
