[Lubuntu-desktop] Pidgin - possible problem with 11-10 a1
Hiyas, a bit of an odd one. As you know, I'm running the alpha1 one of 11-10 in a Virtual Machine. After a clean install of lubuntu 11-10 a1, pidgin is quite happy. However, after a reboot it fails to connect. 1) browsing still works (Chromium and FFox) 2) x-chat still works I do not see this issue in my VM of 11-04, so am a little lost. could someone with a 'real' install check it out on 11-10 a1, if it is a problem on virtualision then I can go and nag JM to death :) As always, please tell me what you want on details.

Hi and thanks, From what you are saying the poor tormented devs need to have a further look into this. Sorry guys, but it does appear to be a 'bug', as to if it is Network Manager or Pidgin, you good people need to find out. If there is anything i can do to assist on tracking it down, please ask. regards, Phill.

Might be another reason to switch to Empathy, as it get supported not only by Ubuntu, but also Gnome. Both Pidgin and LXDE don't have that kind of support-base. Just my 2c of course.

Actually never mind, this is fixed with Pidgin 2.8 which was uploaded to the Oneiric repositories today.
