Install Google Hangouts Desktop Client In Linux
================================================================================
![](http://itsfoss.itsfoss.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/google-hangouts-header-664x374.jpg)
Earlier, we have seen how to [install Facebook Messenger in Linux][1] and [WhatsApp desktop client in Linux][2]. Both of these were unofficial apps. I have one more unofficial app for today and it is [Google Hangouts][3].
Of course, you can use Google Hangouts in the web browser but it is more fun to use the desktop client than the web browser one. Curious? Lets see how to **install Google Hangouts desktop client in Linux** and how to use it.
### Install Google Hangouts in Linux ###
We are going to use an open source project called [yakyak][4] which is unofficial Google Hangouts client for Linux, Windows and OS X. Ill show you how to use yakyak in Ubuntu but I believe that you can use the same method to use it in other Linux distributions. Before we see how to use it, lets first take a look at main features of yakyak:
- Send and receive chat messages
- Create and change conversations (rename, add people)
- Leave and/or delete conversation
- Desktop notifications
- Toggle notifications on/off
- Drag-drop, copy-paste or attach-button for image upload.
- Hangupsbot sync room aware (actual user pics)
- Shows inline images
- History scrollback
Sounds good enough? Download the installation files from the link below:
- [Download Google Hangout client yakyak][5]
The downloaded file would be compressed. Extract it and you will see a directory like linux-x64 or linux-x32 based on your system. Go in to this directory and you should see a file named yakyak. Double click on it to run it.

Youll have to enter your Google Account credentials of course.
![Set up Google Hangouts in Ubuntu](http://itsfoss.itsfoss.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Google_Hangout_Linux_2.jpeg)
Once you are through, youll see a screen like the one below where you can chat with your Google contacts.

If you want to show profile pictures of the contacts, you can select View->Show conversation thumbnails.

Youll also get desktop notification for new messages.

在 Linux 中安装 Google 环聊桌面客户端
================================================================================
![](http://itsfoss.itsfoss.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/google-hangouts-header-664x374.jpg)
先前,我们已经介绍了如何[在 Linux 中安装 Facebook Messenger][1] 和[WhatsApp 桌面客户端][2]。这些应用都是非官方的应用。今天,我将为你推荐另一款非官方的应用,它就是 [Google 环聊][3]
当然,你可以在 Web 浏览器中使用 Google 环聊,但相比于此,使用桌面客户端会更加有趣。好奇吗?那就跟着我看看如何 **在 Linux 中安装 Google 环聊** 以及如何使用它把。
### 在 Linux 中安装 Google 环聊 ###
我们将使用一个名为 [yakyak][4] 的开源项目,它是一个针对 LinuxWindows 和 OS X 平台的非官方 Google 环聊客户端。我将向你展示如何在 Ubuntu 中使用 yakyak但我相信在其他的 Linux 发行版本中,你可以使用同样的方法来使用它。在了解如何使用它之前,让我们先看看 yakyak 的主要特点:
- 发送和接受聊天信息
- 创建和更改对话 (重命名, 添加人物)
- 离开或删除对话
- 桌面提醒通知
- 打开或关闭通知
- 针对图片上传,支持拖放,复制粘贴或使用上传按钮
- Hangupsbot 房间同步(实际的用户图片) (注: 这里翻译不到位,希望改善一下)
- 展示行内图片
- 历史回放
听起来不错吧,你可以从下面的链接下载到该软件的安装文件:
- [下载 Google 环聊客户端 yakyak][5]
下载的文件是压缩的。解压后,你将看到一个名称类似于 linux-x64 或 linux-x32 的目录,其名称取决于你的系统。进入这个目录,你应该可以看到一个名为 yakyak 的文件。双击这个文件来启动它。

当然,你需要键入你的 Google 账号来认证。

一旦你通过认证后,你将看到如下的画面,在这里你可以和你的 Google 联系人进行聊天。
