I installed Pidgin from the repository but I can't get it to work. I have setup my user id, and that seems to work. But when I enable that user it never connects. Everything I try indicates that it is not making connection with the chat server. Does anybody have any ideas? I have searched for firewall and other problems associated with Pidgin but nothing found. BTW, I am trying to use Yahoo Messenger if that makes a difference. TIA & TNX! Dennis
