Problems Connecting to Yahoo Messanger w/ Pidgin
If you’ve recently have had problems logging into your yahoo account you may not be the only one. california treatment centers . On my systems all of a sudden it stopped working and once I added the host entry bammm it worked.. hospitals in san diego . remax.com homes for sale . (was able to ping the name just fine, so forward lookups were ok..) But here’s what I had to do: Add:66.163.181.173 scs.msg.yahoo.cominto /etc/hostshave fun, hope it helps someoneUPDATEAlso see the comment below from James, you can also upgrade to Pidgin 2.5.7 which fixes the issue. You can upgrade using the following repository: sudo zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/GNOME:/Community/openSUSE_11.1/ GNOME Communitysudo zypper mr -r GNOME Communitysudo zypper up -r GNOME CommunityThanks for the update James.. do you know what caused it at all?

Doesn’t seem to work for Easy Peasy yet. I’ll have to wait for the update to become available.
@Nicole
What version of Pidgin is on easy peasy? and did you put the said line into /etc/hosts?
@James Ogley
Thanks james … worked like a charm ….
Great article. Your material has obviously been researched in depth and you’ve done a wonderful job presenting your points. I agree on most but am on the fence on others.
Hmm i hope you dont get annoyed with this question, but how much does a site like yours earn?
