Kopete does not connect to yahoo msn. (I didn’t test other chat services)

Does someone know anything about this issue ?

It seems to be a bug but not sure if this is the same problem you are
experiencing:

Bug 516347 - kopete in kde 4.2.4 from openSUSE Build Service - cant connect
to yahoo

Pidgin 2.5.7 is working ok and solved the issue of server for yahoo.
Kopete still have issues.

i had the same problem, and it turned out for me, at least i believe so, to be a conflict between kde 4.1 and kde 4.2 … for different reasons, i had to rebuild my distro (11.1), but instead of using kde 4.1 (provided by the install dvd) i added the kde 4.2.4 repos and installed that release of kde only … ever since then, i am able to connect to yahoo and msn again … i suggest you add the kde 4.2.4 repos and then run: zypper up kde4* in a terminal as root and solve all conflicts in favour of kde 4.2.4 … theo

I’ll try pidgin and will tell . .also I will do the zypper stuff

thanks for your feedback
