Upgrading my system to Ubuntu 9.04 x86_64 (pidgin 1:2.5.5-1ubuntu8) has fixed the problem for me.
To be specific: I can now uncheck "Mute Sounds" and Pidgin will play a happy "do-DOO" sound when it starts up and (automatically) logs into to Freenode. It's entirely possible that it was not the upgrade to pidgin but something else (maybe Evolution, as raccoonone suggests) that fixed this problem. -- pidgin freezes while typing a message https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/162701 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
