kopete?<br></blockquote></div><div><br></div><div>It is working fine here on 6 different computers and a number of my friends have used kopete on facebook too.</div><div><br></div><div>The settings i have are in the basic settings tab your Jabber ID is <a href="mailto:username@chat.facebook.com">username@chat.facebook.com</a> and in the Connection tab select Enable protocol encryption (SSL) and Allow plain-text password authentication.</div>
