View 2 RepliesI'm using pidgin on both, windows and linux on several pc. To sync my log, I use dropbox. For linux, it's easy. Just a matter of symlink. However, I don't know how to sync it on windows, without manual copy-paste once I'm done on windows.
backup and delete current log (it's located at C:Users{your user name}Roaming.purplelogs)
mklink /D "C:Users{your user name}Roaming.purplelogs" "E:My Dropboxsomepathpurplelogs"
"C:Users{your user name}Roaming.purplelogs" is where you want your symlink at
"E:My Dropboxsomepathpurplelogs" is there you have your dropboxed logs.
How do I turn off Pidgin notification balloons when a buddy logs on or off? I've looked through the application's preferences like 3 times; is there some sort of system control for notification balloons?

View 1 Replies View RelatedJust set up a 10.04 server today, running with dancer-ircd and dancer-services packages to create a private IRC server. However, there's a requirement to log chats against users/host/IP address for future reference. I was wondering if there was a built in server side approach (rather than separate bots per channel) to log chats in such a way?

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

I do voice chats with Windows Live Messenger and need a replacement. Was looking at the default Empathy IM, but I'm not sure if it supports this.

After doing sudo apt-get update When I try to insatll pidgin via terminal it shows: XXX@XXX-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get install pidgin Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: pidgin: Depends: libpurple0 (>= 1:2.6.0) but it is not going to be installed Depends: perl (>= 5.10.0-19ubuntu1.1) but 5.10.0-19ubuntu1 is to be installed E: Broken packages
Previously after doing aptitude upgrade, my pidgin seems broken with no gui shown. So I decided to download the latest source from pidgin website and build it from source, but I think I made situation worse because it then complained that ssl lib was needed. Then I removed the libpurple (e.g. aptitude purge libpurple0 libpurple-bin libpurple-dev) and reinstalled pidgin (aptitude install pidgin). Now it shows the error
pidgin: symbol lookup error: pidgin: undefined symbol: purple_media_element_info_get_type
I searched on the internet and can not find a solution. The clues on the internet says that's because the piding I use is the older version of libpurple. But I think I've removed all with purge and reinstalled it. Maybe some legacy binary is referenced. What or where it might be? Or where there may contain related information.
When I try to login as me - it gets pretty far but then something happens and automatically logs out. This happens in Gnome, Kde too. Now - I have no problem logging in a Root. Is there a way I can try to stop the login process before it kicks me out, or is there a way to look at some files to tell me what's going on?

I recently began at a new company that uses google apps for domains. The problem is, there are nearly 150 employees and no centralized address book to speak of. I managed to get a list of legal names and email addresses out of the HR department, but I'd like to build my google address book as well as my pidgin buddy list.Pidgin buddy lists are in the format code...
I've tried to simply edit blist.xml, but the act of actually ADDING a buddy does more than simply stick them into your list, it actually performs a server action to do mutual authentication and stuff. So my question is: Is there a way I can run a script that will "add" all these people onto my buddy list without me having to type each email address and full name by hand?
I have found Pidgin to be very useful but I am lacking a very essential functionality of SIP based calling.
View 5 Replies View RelatedThere seems to have been a change in how you add buddies in Pidgin, since I last used Pidgin in Ubuntu. When I open the add buddy window in Pidgin I get the image attached. It allows me to "search" Personal or Ubuntu One from the drop down list, but nothing is ever populated in the main text area. Similarly, when I select a group from the drop down list in the lower right corner, it never selects it. Also when I click "New Person" it simply closes the window without ever adding a new buddy to my buddy list.

View 4 Replies View RelatedPidgin likes to randomly crash on me, and sometimes it takes me awhile to notice. So I thought why not make a script and cron job to see if pidgin is running and restart it if needed. Sounded easy but having all kinds of problems. Here's my cron line...
Code:
*/1 * * * * /home/justin/chkpdgn.sh >> /home/justin/test.log 2>&1
I run "tail -f /home/justin/test.log" to keep an eye on the cron output.
Here's the chkpdgn.sh script...
Code:
#!/bin/bash
SERVICE='pidgin'
if ps ax | grep -v grep | grep $SERVICE > /dev/null
then
echo "$SERVICE service running, everything is fine"
else
echo "$SERVICE is not running"
$SERVICE
fi
Running that works fine when I do it, but when cron does it pidgin never starts and I get this error...
Code:
pidgin is not running
error: line 15: bad flag alias index: 0
error: line 15: bad flag vector alias
error: line 16: bad flag alias index: 0
error: line 16: bad flag vector alias
That goes on for quite awhile up to like line 60000 and pidgin runs but doesn't show up in the me menu. Any way to restart pidgin when it crashes?
Take a look at the picture. 1 refers to the mail icon, which has pidgin in it (I couldn't screenshot while open for some reason), and 2 refers to the icon that can be clicked which has the capabilities to set "available, away, invisible, etc" and that type of thing. Problem is, I no longer use empathy, I use pidgin instant messenger. Can I use the #2 icon referred to in the picture to control my status for pidgin?
