Are you using wireless or wired connection? Sometimes roaming mode in wireless gives me headache especially if I connect to a wireless network with DHCP off and is WEP protected. The Signal bar turns blue but if I right click that icon and click Connection Information, that's when I find out that I don't have an IP address. Meanwhile pidgin buddy list will display a small error at the bottom. and it will have a reconnect button. So what I do is to first check that my internet connection is okay, then press reconnect in pidgin and all will be okay. I hope this helps. -- says avialble but will not connect fully, plus my buddy list is empty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/271149 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug.
