The "Authentication Failed" Issue cropped up when Facebook changed all their UserIDs.

I got around the problem simply by removing the account, rebooting (don't know why that helped), and recreating the account.

Thinking about it... this may have been when I used Jabber to do FB.. hmm. Whatever, the timing is right. I have since then got FB working, but with the usual duplicates/merging bug, so I just disabled the account.

But what gets me is, if FB now works with XMPP/Jabber, then why is it so difficult to get this working just under the Facebook name and icon. ?

I can deal with not having people's facebook status being retrieved (though it is nice), I just want it to be shown as Facebook, not Jabber.

Also, to anyone else, I'm on MSN Haze, and it seems flawless in this version.

All you have to do is install: Pidgin protocols plugin for Conversations and Contacts

been working for ages on this end.

Hey u guys....the 'Hide Self' option under Advanced Facebook settings is not working.

I chatted with a friend who confirmed my name was under the chat's list.

Got it working fine. Signed in with my email address and password.

Seems to be a bug though. When I try and set my screen name as something other than my email address it doesn't work. I click save and it all looks good but when I start a conversation my email address is still shown as my screen name and its back in the settings part again.. Anyone else has this happen?

EDIT: Gone back to Jabber.. Will give this pluggin another go when the bugs are fixed..
