Thanks for all the help so far. I've tried cn.scs.msg.yahoo.com or whatever it is, that one didn't work for me.

If there's anyone out there who has yahoo working on pidgin could they post a screen shot of what they've got for the pager server?

The last time I tried Empathy it didn't work for me either, but it's always worth a try again. I'll let you know how it goes the next time I'm on my laptop.

I just tried to install empathy and in the process it informs me that there was an error that occured. I run the package manager and look for the broken package and after trying to mark it for reinstallation I get this

Code: Select all
E: /var/cache/apt/archives/gstreamer0.10-plugins-good_0.10.15-2ubuntu1~pidgin4.9.04_i386.deb: trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstliveadder.so', which is also in package gstreamer0.10-plugins-farsight


What do?

Are you using the Pidgen that comes pre loaded? (2.62) There is a newer version out 2.6.6. I don't know if this would help or not. I tried my yahoo on pidgen and there was no problem with it. I did find this http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-F ... 4754.shtml I hope this one helps
