I am running Pidgin on an N800 with OS2008. It works great (much improved over its predecessor gaim) EXCEPT when I set my status as "available" it will, in a few minutes, switch back to "away." I've searched for any defaults for idle time - could not find any in menus. Also, I installed the plugin for setting idle time ... used it to turn idle off or to set for an hour ... neither worked still changed to "away" after a few minutes.
