I am a newbie in linux. After installing ubuntu 10.04, I tried to install google talk in linux.
For this, I installed Wine and then downloaded the gtalk exe. But when I am trying to open the gtalk exe using Wine, it blocks the application with message it is not an exe and hence blocked.
Any suggestion is appreciated.

Jump to Postyou could use pidgin and sign in to your google account from there. pidgin accepts all different types of protocols (e.g. msn, gtalk, aim, etc)
Jump to PostEmpathy is another program on Ubuntu which also uses several different chat protocols.
Up in the top bar of 10.04 and 10.10, there is an image of an envelope.
If you click on the envelope, a context menu will pop up and there will be an entry in there …
