Doesn't bother Me to sound crass. :) He has mentioned many times that
He's running Ubuntu and will reinstall Ubuntu. He *never* mentioned
Windows. <SIGH> Ubuntu is Linux.
I heard he was installing (then reinstalling, then installing) Ubuntu,
so forgive me for not being on the boat that he is using Ubuntu.
Offering Windows assistance to a Linux User is about as helpful as
offering a can of Diesel fuel to a motorist who has run out of gas. :-\
This is true, and my apologies to him and the rest of the list. It
sounded like to me that he was wanting to install (or having used it
before, reinstall) Ubuntu on a slow running computer. I hope I can be
forgiven for thinking he was running Windoze.
S/He needs to login as Root and then locate ~/.purple [~ = Home]
I'm fairly certain Bernie is a he. And he doesn't need to be root to get
into ~/.purple (unless he's running Pidgin as root, which is just
silly). I'm very familiar with Linux myself (I've used RH6.2-8, Debian
and Gentoo), having about a decade of experience with the OS (giving my
experience with Linux to certify that I do know what I'm talking about).
