I'm using Xandros Desktop 1.0 on my desknote. Unfortuntately, gaim is not installed by default. I uncommented the debain sources from the sources.list went to Xandros update and then installed gaim. This was the error message:
debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Dialog
debconf: (TERM is not set, so the Dialog frontend is not usable.)
debconf: falling back to frontend: Readline

The good news is that gaim is now on the menu and works. Funny :-)
