It is working fine here on 6 different computers and a number of my friends
have used kopete on facebook too.

The settings i have are in the basic settings tab your Jabber ID is
username at chat.facebook.com and in the Connection tab select Enable protocol
encryption (SSL) and Allow plain-text password authentication.

One problem a friend met a while ago was that he hadn't set a username up on
facebook (at least in the past you only needed an email address to sign up
and setting a username was optional). You can set your username if you
haven't already in Account Settings on facebook (second item down on the
Settings tab). I once heard (possibly wrongly) that purple-facebookchat
doesn't use the jabber interface so it accepts email addresses as well as
usernames.
