Pidgin + Mint 6 = hanging?

Post by epx998@yahoo.com »

Hi All, I am wondering if anyone else has had a problem running pidgin on mint6? Mine seems to hang after a while. Not the os, but pidgin itself. I never had this problem until I started using release 6. Any thoughts?

Pidgin 2.5.2 is running fine on my Mint 6 installs (both 32-bit and 64-bit). It is not sluggish nor hangs at all. Though, your situation may depend on what protocols you have enabled. I use XMPP full-time and AIM part-time. I cannot comment on other protocols and their speeds. If you use something besides what I do, you may be at the mercy of whatever protocol you use. Could you share more information from your end?

Hi there,

I recently installed Linux Mint 6. Pidgin 2.5.5 as well as Emesene freeze when logging in to an MSN-account. Kopete however works like a charm. Please help, cause these are my favourite messengers.

Greets,

Edit: After a reboot all seems well... No idea what was wrong.
