I use Pidgin on my N800. Can you tell me the name of the plug-in that causes the LED to flash, please!

hey (:

has anyone else problems with the latest version of the statusbar plugin for pidgin?

if it's installed and i try to start pidgin an error pops up like "internal error. program is shutting down."

that sucks... because showing a small icon for new messages in the statusbar is really sweet :D

I have a general question about Pidgin, I hope its ok to add to this thread. I'm a long time user of Pidgin on my N810 but now that I have a N900 with all its integrated accounts for IM's it seems Pidgin is an unnecessary redundancy. Why would use it if my N900 can already do IM's and SMS built in? The only thing I miss is the "user is typing" message....

I am having trouble downloading 'Pidgin plugin for conversations and contact' I'm getting a message saying that the 'upstart job' package is missing. Anyone know where I can get that package from?

People don't like having all of their instant message contacts integrated into the phone contacts

ARGHHHH! :confused: This is so frustrating. When I enter my AIM account information it accepts it but then says 'not signed in'. Anyone know what I may be doing wrong? I sucessfully signed into Yahoo, is there something wrong with the AIM login?

Exactly the same for me. Looks like we have to wait till an update fixes this problem :(.

I'm using pidgin right now, but I don't like the notification when someone speaks to you... I just want a simple small pop up like it was with the integrated one. I downloaded a plugin for notifications but still the only thing I can set is when someone speaks to you the screens popup over all screens or like i have now, browing the web and you can't see who talked.

Is it possible to get a popup if someone talks to you like there was in the integrated one?

thanks

problem solved:

just go to ~/.purple and delete "prefs.xml".

a new prefs.xml will be created on next pidgin startup.

it seems that old/false preferences are responsible for this error.

-------------------

popups on maemo? i don't know...

the only thing i can imagine:
using dbus to show the messages

(the theme-colored banners which appear when something important happens - i hope you know what i mean xD)
