For QQ, there are three choices:
  1. Gaim. Can only be used to chat.
  2. LumaQQ. Most same as the original one.
  3. Cyclone.
  4. Eva
Here we mainly talk about the installation of LumaQQ.
  1. Download the package from www.lumaqq.linuxsir.org
  2. sudo tar -xzvf lumaqq_2006M2-linux_gtk2_x86_no_jre.tar.gz -C /opt
  3. sudo chmod -R 755 /opt/LumaQQ/
  4. sudo gedit /usr/share/applications/LumaQQ.desktop
Add following content to it:
[Desktop Entry]

Name=LumaQQ

Comment=QQ Client

Exec=/opt/LumaQQ/lumaqq

Icon=/opt/LumaQQ/QQ.png

Terminal=false

Type=Application

Categories=Application;Network;

Now you can find it Applications -> Internat -> LumaQQ and launch it.
