Is there anyway to choose a second soundcard for pidgin to use?

2010-01-29 Thread Joel La Prade
I have a somewhat strange request. On my work PC I constantly have my
headphones plugged in as I use a VOIP system. These headphones are USB and
act as a second sound card.
I don't always wear these headphones so if I don't have them on, I can't
hear when I receive a new message using pidgin. Is there any way that I can
choose which soundcard Pidgin uses? I would like it to use my internal
soundmax card instead of the gn2100 headset soundcard.

Thanks,
Joel

pidgin log in to skype?

2010-01-29 Thread Fecooka

Hi!
I've downloaded pidgin and it is cool ... :) I like it.
But.. is there any possibility to log in skype account too? Cause i'd like 
to have only one chat program for MSN and Skype too.

Please send me a link to download this plugin!
Thanks and congratulate for this program, Pidgin is very good!
It opens chats in one window, itis a great idea, thanks!
:)

There is a Skype plugin, it is not written or supported by the Pidgin
developers, and it can't be included with Pidgin due to its
incompatible licence.

You will need to search for this yourself, although there might be some
links in the list archive if you search there.

I've used the Skype plugin and I do /not/ recommend it at all. You still
have to have Skype open and logged in to use it. All the plugin does is
merge the buddy list with Pidgin (supposedly, it didn't work at all for
me the way it said it would) to let you know who is and isn't online.
All IMs, Voice and Video stuff is still handled by Skype.

Skinning

2010-01-29 Thread O'Brien, Duncan
I am having trouble skinning my pidgin. I have downloaded a theme, but
when I put it in the GTK theme folder it's not appearing on GTK theme
selector's menu.

 

Am I putting it in the wrong destination?

What exactly did you download (and where did you extract it to)?

The Skype protocol is encrypted, secret, and I don't think anyone has

use the Skype API.

RFC1855 says there should be an address here, but, in a world of spam,
that is no longer good advice, as archive address hiding may not work.

From what I experienced of it, that's pretty much exactly what it does.

Sort by log size

2010-01-29 Thread Durham
I recently upgrade to the latest version of pidgin (I have no idea what 
version I was using before).  I noticed the Sort by Log Size option is 
gone (or I can't find it).  Why was it removed?  I've been using 
Gaim/Pidgin basically forever and now it's decided to reorder my buddy list.


Given that the main UI is basically a list of people, removing one of 
the options to sort that list seems like a pretty significant change.


Please reply to my email address since I'm not on this distribution list.

Thanks,
-Durham
