Hi I have an SL5.2 installation of Fermi Linux cat /proc/version Linux version 2.6.18-92.1.6.el5 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 4.1.2 20071124 (Red Hat 4.1.2-42)) #1 SMP Wed Jun 25 12:38:37 EDT 2008
When I try to start pidgin I get libnm_glib_nm_state_cb: dbus returned an error. (org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown) The name org.freedesktop.NetworkManager was not provided by any .service files I see that this is reported on http://pidgin.im/pipermail/tracker/2007-August/011431.html but there does not seem to be a resolution. Pidgin is also available from Applications->Internet->Internet Messenger (at least I infer this from the animal icon). If I use this, I get the "wait" (circle of dots) and after a few seconds it stops. I guess it is the same problem as typing interactively. Can you help?
