Hi, Evidently ([1], [2]), MSN has made changes in its servers that have rendered Pidgin and Adium unable to connect and I have recently discovered this affects me. I wonder if anyone else has encountered this problem, if they know of a work-around (other than switching IM clients, since I've triend Kopete and don't entirely care for it) and / or whether there are plans to get existing packages fixed?

Seems to be a general problem.. I'm connected again right now, but have had connection problems with MSN for about a week now. C. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Huh. Upon reading this, I tried again and got it.

I do not know what audium is Randall, but at this particular moment in time, I have my MSN connection up in pidgin (11.1).

Amsn is available from the repos, and I know it logs into MSN's servers (I just confirmed that), if you'd like to try that. FYI my version of libpurple is: rpm -q libpurple libpurple-2.5.3-6.1 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
