Ben,
Thank you for looking into the idle/away business. I have been looking into
it some too -- this is the SINGLE thing that keeps me from using fire daily.
It seems that there is an idle check built into the firetalk library as well
as the one Fire does itself. Between the two of them, they get themselves
all kinds of mixed up.
If you just disable the toc_set_idle() one in firetalk, it seems to make
Fire okay, but it still marks you as away instead of idle regardless of your
pref setting AND it still misses setting you back to available sometimes.
I hope this helps some.... And I hope you're able to kill this bug good and
dead. I really would like to use fire, but everyone thinks I'm idle all the
time, so they don't IM me.
