I couldn't get pidgin-facebook chat to show up in the plugin list so I tested using XMPP instead. It seems to lack at least group chat: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7563763/is-group-chat-for-facebook-implemented-in-the-api Another critical feature that I can't find is the ability to see messages that were sent to me while pidgin was not running. I can't keep GPRS connected all the time, I'd really prefer being able to check if somebody has sent me a message without having to navigate the web page. If any one of these two features are supported by pidgin-facebookchat then it might still serve a useful purpose. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
