OS: Ubuntu 9.10 x64. There is the same issue with Empathy and MSN in Ubuntu 9.10.
This is a major issue, since MSN is one of the largest (I think the largest) IM network, and Empathy is the default client. I think this can be a bad first impression for new Ubuntu users. Needs to be fixed now, or the default IM client should be changed to another client, like Pidgin. I found this solution: http://ubuntu-utah.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8058121&postcount=9 that is, "ok try this remove telepathy-butterfly an you should just have telepathy-haze installed try connecting with that". and it just works! There must be a conflict between the two libraries. I think this can be provided as a fix in Ubuntu updates soon. ** Changed in: empathy (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released => Confirmed -- MSN connection does not work: Network error https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/513346 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
