Hi all,

I'm unable to connect to my qq account in pidgin.
I'm using the latest ppa version 2.7.3 in Ubuntu..

It sais "connecting" for about 2 minutes, then "disconnected", and "server closed the connection".
I chose protocol version QQ2008.

I could not find any successful information about how to connect in pidgin..
Since QQ is in the home page list <http://www.pidgin.im/> it should work, shouldn't it?


Not necessarily. Instant Messaging service operators change their protocols without telling open source developers, and often don't encourage third party clients. Such a change certainly happened to QQ earlier this year. I'm not sure if any Chinese open source developer has started working on the problem.

Have a look at the bug tracker. I would hope there is a bug report for this, and it might tell you if someone is working on it.
