Ubuntu :: Twitter Status / Update Pidgin Status In Lucid
Jul 5, 2010
I have just upgraded to Lucid on Ubuntu. I am a long time Pidgin user. I tried using Empathy with Gwibber, but I can't get Gwibber to update my IM status(es) in Empathy, so I want to go back to using Pidgin. (Additionally, I can't get Skype to work with Empathy.)I installed pidgin-microblog and pidgin-mbpurple, and they allow me to view my Twitter feed in Pidgin and update my Twitter status in Pidgin. However, in Karmic, I was also able to specify certain "status availabilities" (one named "Twitter-Available" and one named "Twitter-Away", for instance) to have the IM status message for these statuses become populated with my Twitter feed. This capability seems missing in pidgin-mbpurple in Lucid (and it seems to be the only thing missing from Karmic).
Is there a way to have pidgin-mbpurple update certain "status availabilities" in Lucid (and I'm just missing something) or is this no longer possible?Equivalently, is it possible to have Gwibber update my status message in Empathy? (I just want to be able to update my status once on one of my three computers - and have it propagate to all my other accounts (IM and social networking) and computers).

I want the guification (or similar mechanism) which, when a user updates his/her status message gives me a notification of that. How do I get this?

I'm currently using Pidgin 2.6.2 on Karmic. Status changes work fine if I change it in Pidgin, but if I use the user switching applet to change my status is consistently disconnects my connection to Windows Live (but not AIM or GTalk), claiming that I have "signed on from another location". A quick Google and forums search turned up nothing.

After a fresh installation of Ubuntu 10.10 I uninstalled empathy (im using skype). The empathy menu in the evolution indicator was gone after that.I also uninstalled gwibber. But the gwibber status indicator remains within the about-me panel... Uninstalling the gwibber package also removes the me-menu which I want to keep actually. Especially the shutdown/restart... part of it. See attachment.I know there is a shutdown panel-app...but its butt-ugly and it doesnt allow to logon/off.
In another thread I read that the gwibber status shouldnt be there if no account for it is configured... which it is not... I do use ubuntu-one though which is in the same menu... I saw that this issue was addressed at some bug report before, but not fixed yet...
Does anybody know a good workaround to get rid of the gwibber status in the panel while keeping the about me and the shutdown button?

I have noticed that my battery-status applet icon, which appears next to the wireless symbol in the notification applet on the menu bar at the top of the screen, only appears for a second or two when I plug in my notebook and then disappears. It does not appear at all when the notebook is unplugged. just noticed this behaviorafter restarting with the new kernel

I already checked the preferences of UM but the filtering is somewhat awkward -- i.e. you have choice to EITHER install silently security updates OR be notified about all updates. One does not exclude the other, but for UM apparently it does.
But I have similar yet different need -- be notified about ONLY security updates (so when I click to show the updates, I will see only them). The rest of the updates should be ignored -- unless the update is required by the other, security update package.

I lost my entire Operating system and am now reinstalling. After installing SUSE 11.1 and updating it through the update icon in the status bar, I ended up with a complete update except for the update icon in the status bar now depicting a downward arrow. This equates to my not wanting to download a update/patch/whatever of a "Microsoft font file"!
However, there is no way to delete this option that I do not want. How do I get rid of the MS font update and bring the OS/system back to the Gecko symbol associated with taking care (updating) of updating my system without a thing from MS? To those who are bound to ask, I want nothing to do with MS, this should be sufficient.

The install/upgrade appears to work but I'm getting concerned about the message continuing for so long.

This happened completely randomly. One day, my synaptic and update manager is working fine and the next day, I open one of them and get a error window that doesn't say anything (no details on the error). So, i tried the terminal, sudo apt-get update, and this message shows:
Reading package lists... Error!
E: Problem parsing dependency Depends
E: Error occurred while processing lib�tartup-notificamion0-dev (NewVersion1)
E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_karmic_main_binary-i386_Packages
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

I have a Kubuntu 10.10 install on which I can't update my packages due to some fail conflict between pidgin and pidgin-facebookchat. I can't even remove the stuff via apt-get due to this conflict...
sudo apt-get remove pidgin
Code:

You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:

The text entry box that you can normally type a message into when you click on your name in the top right of the screen is missing. It's there on my laptop, and I set up a couple of broadcast accounts and then noticed it was missing on my desktop. I've uninstalled and reinstalled gwibber and it's still not there.

I booted up my laptop and the boot sequence got stuck at the boot splash screen (plymouth). I did an esc and I saw a failure message, the error I remember in my panic mode is: fsck terminated with status 8
I rebooted, got the same message. Rebooted again and this time, to my relief, it worked.
1) What happened, should I be concerned? Not sure why it worked after 2 reboots.
2) Is there a possibility this could happen again?
3) Are there any boot log files I could look at?
4) Is there anything I can do to fix this? Or a check of some sort?
I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 on a Dell Studio 1535 laptop. No dual boot. The disk is partitioned and I've got my /home folder on the other partition for situations like this.

I have a new install of Ubuntu 10.10 (32bit) installed and I am noticing that on the top right corner where it shows the connection status, specifically the wired connection, it has a white box around it. I have tried changing the themes to something different but it is showing this on all the default themes I choose from. (Specifically Ambiance and New Wave). I am attaching a screen shot to show exactly what I am talking about. I am also using the Nvidia drivers (recommended version).

I'm using Xubuntu and have lost my bottom status bar so that if I minimize programs they vanish from the screen and I have no idea if they are running or not and cannot recover them, I cannot use web mail notifier either as I cannot get to the icon which is normally at the bottom of the screen. I suspect one of my kids have altered settings some where.

if I boot to Recovery, is there any way to edit this locale file or to delete it and replace it with a default one? How can I edit the Locale file to fix this problem without being able to boot?
