I checked every case you mentioned, but the outcome is always the same. It doesn't matter, if the buddy list is on screen before I do a restart or not. Afterwards the first start sends Empathy to the indicator (the status icon next to my user name in the panel changes to "online") and the second start brings the buddy list back on screen. Everytime. So, if you say that the buddy list should be displayed on starting when it was there before, it doesn't.
I hope I understood you correctly, since I am not a native English speaker... ;) -- [karmic] Empathy needs to be started twice to see the buddy list https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/454623 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
