Ubuntu :: Empathy's Avatar Cache
May 16, 2010
I'm trying to convert some of my old Pidgin-logs to Empathy's format, and I've run into an issue I can't figure out. The Empathy logfiles contain a "token", which is a sha1-hash of the user's avatar at the moment the message was sent.The avatars are stored (in my case) in ~/.cache/telepathy/avatars/butterfly/msn. All filenames contain the sha1-hash, and have no extension (such as jpg/png). Some avatars uses only the hash as filename, but some has the prefix "_3" before the hash.Does anyone know why some avatars are prefixed "_3"?

I enjoyed avatar, so bought the dvd.
I can watch it on my home theatre dvd player, but I can't watch it on my Ubuntu 10.04 computers.
I've install the usual css stuff ...
sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh
(and even rebooted!)
But it displays in all the players like it's encrypted. I've read the talk of it being drm protected, etc.
Is there any way round it? Or do you just torrent it (so much for being legit).

I don't understand this error nor do I know how to solve the issue that is causing the error. Anyone care to comment?

I know JohnVV. "Install a supported version of Fedora, like Fedora 11". This is on a box that has all 11 releases of Fedora installed. It's a toy and I like to play around with it.

I was laughing about klackenfus's post with the ancient RH install, and then work has me dig up an old server that has been out of use for some time. It has some proprietary binaries installed that intentionally tries to hide files to prevent copying (and we are no longer paying for support or have install binaries), so a clean install is not preferable.
Basically it has been out of commission for so long, that the apt-get upgrade DL is larger than the /var partition (apt caches to /var/cache/apt/archives).
I can upgrade the bigger packages manually until I get under the threshold, but then I learn nothing new. So I'm curious if I can redirect the cache of apt to a specified folder either on the command line or via a config setting?

i was looking for a way to stop my menus taking a few seconds to load my icons when i first open them and found a few guides suggesting using the gtk-upate-icon-cache command, but with the any colour you like icon theme i'm using (stored in my home folder .icons directory) i kept getting a "gtk-update-icon-cache: The generated cache was invalid." fault i used the inbuilt facility in the acyl script to copy the icons to the usr/share/icons directory and tried the command again, this time using sudo gtk-update-icon-cache --force --ignore-theme-index /usr/share/icons/ACYL_Icon_Theme_0.8.1/ but i still get the same error. i tried with several of the custom icon themes i've installed and only 1 of the first 7 or 8 i tried successfully created the cache.

My comp is litterly doing nothing, and 61% of my RAM is being used as cache. I don't know if I created a swap space correctly. I loaded up gparted and I see that I do have a 2gb partition labled linux-swap. Why am I completely out of RAM? I have 4gb btw

You can find this bug here: [URL]and here: [URL]
Sometimes Empathy is not sending my messages to my contacts on MSN. There are no warning messages of this, so it's really annoying. I have to disconnect and reconnect to MSN to resolve the issue. After the bug occurs no message is sent to that contact, but I can communicate with others.
In my case I see no correlation between the length of the message and the bug occurring, it seems to appear randomly.
I am using Empathy 2.30.0.1 on Ubunutu 10.04 RC

i've never been able to use empathy.for some reason, i just can't add accounts.i've messed with it a lot in karmic, but gave up. running lucid now and added a profile for my wife. interestingly, she has no problems using empathy so i think there must be something going on with my settings.i've searched and searched and removed everything i could find that was empathy-related, but no luck.

I just recently installed Ubuntu 10.04 and I am trying to connect to IRC (freenode) using Empathy. When I try to add a new account, IRC does not show up in the list of "kind of chat account". I'll attach a screenshot of what I see. I have the telepathy-idle package installed.

To get sip support in empathy you have to run.
Code:
sudo apt-get install telepathy-sofiasip
But i could not get my account to work.
I already have a ekiga.net account working in Ekiga. So i know my account is correct.

I've been trying to stomach Empathy's emoticons for a while now but I don't think I can take them anymore; I just find them #*^$@-n' creepy. As far as I can tell, there isn't a slick way to customize this, but does anyone know where to go under the hood in this program?

I'm having problems with the Empathy MSN on Ubuntu 10.10.I have searched the web but haven't found anything particular about this.I'm trying to log in but it stays on "Connecting" forever, doesn't go anywhere else.But it's still logging in, how do I know that?When I'm on msn on my other computer (which runs W7) and I try to log in into Empathy, I get signed out from my W7 MSN. This happens because I happen to log in from another place. In this case, that means that Empathy is logging me in, but it's still stucks on "Connection".

I've been troubled by the high amount of RAM that is used by my Ubuntu desktop. Before I installed Ubuntu 10.04 (desktop, 64-bit) my system used around 500MB of RAM when no applications were open (just cold boot into the GNOME under 9.10). But when I installed Lucid, I've noticed that my used memory is now reported as 1GB or more as soon as I log into the system.
I want to figure out what is using all the extra RAM but I can't seems to find the culprit. I looked at all of the processes and numbers just don't add up. I exported the list of processes into a file and summed up the memory used by every process in a spreadsheet. The total came to around 700MB. Yet, both System Monitor and "free" reported the time that system was using over 1GB of memory. This means that at least 300MB of RAM are used but not by any process, at least as reported by "ps".

I'm using 9.10 on a laptop as a server - it is not currently connected to a router/clients
I have installed a Jabber server and created a new account online but when I try to connect using Empathy I get a "Network Error" message
I'm presuming I have to point it at my server somehow but I'm completely lost as to how

I have Empathy set to start when I login, and when I turn off my computer, it is always still running. I also usually have Evolution, Liferea, and Rhythmbox running. All of these applications usually work fine the next day when I turn on my computer. However, for the last few days, Empathy has been starting without a menu bar. In one instance, Rhythmbox was also menubar-less. Now, Empathy is always without a menu bar. If I ever need the menu bar, I have to restart Empathy. Can anyone tell me why this is happening? I am unable to provide a terminal output since this application starts up with my computer. I have provided a screenshot of Empathy. I think I have a faint idea of why Empathy is without a menu bar. I read something somewhere about an XML file that contained the menu bar contents. I think that since I shut off my computer without closing these applications, that file has been corrupted. I have no idea why everything works fine once I restart Empathy, though. If you cannot answer this question, perhaps you could tell me if it is safe to shutdown Ubuntu with applications still running. In OS X, it will automatically tell your applications to quit safely, then turn of the computer. I hope Ubuntu doesn't just force quit any open applications. I am using Ubuntu 9.04 32 bit with the latest updates. I am using Empathy 2.26.1.

i got my facebook chat working in empathy, but for some reason i can not add my friends from this protocol into a custom group. I have my gmail contacts in a group, and my aim buddies in a group, allowing them to be minimized, but i cannot get my facebook friends to go into a facebook group for some reason. I can right click the friend, and create a new group called "Facebook", but the friend will not move to the group when i hit close.

Hello, when I log into Aim using pidgin I get this error
"Received unexpected response from http://api.oscar.aol.com/aim/startOSCARSession"
I tried using a MSN account to test it out and it works. So AIM does not work. The port is on 5190 so I dont understand what is wrong.

I know how to do so in pidgin - there was a specific directory in ur homedir which u could go to to back things up. But where is this in empathy? Let's say i want to reinstall. Or shift to another machine. What happens then?
(Note: I've tried searching the forums already with "empathy backup". Not much luck there. Also looked at [URL]

I want to start empathy with a different config directory, but I cannot find how to do it. For example, with Pidgin I used to do it doing 'pidgin -c path-to-folder'. Does anybody know if it's possible?

This is the site where I went to find a theme [URL] And this is the one I'd like to install [URL] but I can't get it to work, can some one help me on this one,... Plus I'm pretty sure theres more people out there like me. So this would be very nice if some one tells us "how to". I like pidgin better, but empathy it's the default in ubuntu, and It comes with better integration with Gnome.
