I'm a dev, and I still cant reproduce this with my msn account. Does the problem go away if you first select another status, then select online? I've occasionally had that - that it will just go grey if i try to hit online straight away - but not in a while.
It sounds like a config issue, if removing ~/.kde/apps/share/kopete fixes it. as for why it comes back, I dont know. -- [feisty] kopete 0.12.4 wont connect to msn https://launchpad.net/bugs/85359 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
