1.
* Go to "Accounts" and select "Manage Accounts."
2.
* On the Basic tab, enter the following info:
* Protocol: XMPP
* Username: <your username>
* Domain: chat.facebook.com
* Resource: Pidgin
* Password: <your Facebook password>
3.
* Click the Advanced tab, then enter the following info:
* Connect port: 5222
* Connect server: chat.facebook.com
* (Uncheck the box labeled "Require SSL/TLS")
Or, go to http://www.facebook.com/sitetour/chat.php when you're logged
in to Facebook and Facebook will give you the same info with the
appropriate username (note that this is not an email address)
