KDE Telepathy 0.4 -- feedback requested

Thanks, I already have already a good VPN for such problem so should not be a connection/China Firewall problem. I think the problem comes from tencent security validation that are badly (not) supported.
It was nearly the same with kopete I used before, but was better though since once I unlocked the account of tencent website it was working (was good for kopete not for telepathy)

Thanks for the reply

I Used telepathy for a while now. I am in China, Using QQ 2010 to connect to the QQ network. It has trouble connecting, the tencent security services just keep saying my account has been hacked ask me to unlock it but then Telepathy manage to connect a few seconds and then account is blocked again. It notably get blocked each time I connect to my VPN whiler connected to the service. I barely manage to get it working some times.

First time I try to report things, I ll install latest version asap, please tell me if anything needed.

One way to pinpoint if the Google Chat issue is with Telepathy would be to see if video chat works in Google+ or via other online Google services like GMail. If not, the issue wouldn't likely be with Telepathy but if it does work with Google in general but not Telepathy then we maybe can get closer to an answer.

yes it works just fine in G-mail in firefox
just not in Telepathy

well I removed my google talk acct from Telepathy then remade it and I can text chat, audio chat, but video chat crashes as soon as it connects .......O and file transfer dose not work

this is on precise KDE-4.8.4 Telepathy-0.4 through backports-PPA

Hello Guys,

In the pre-realease of 12.04 version of Kubuntu I wrote that "Telepathy is not connecting". No good answers I had received that moment to resolve my problem, however last days ago I discoreved the problem which was affecting Telepathy to no conect to any place. Telepathy seems to work only if you enable KWallet. Enabling the KWallet I could connect to any place. I'm using today KDE Telepathy 0.4. Amasing version, webcam and audio working fine and I thing it should be the default messenger to next version of my sweet love OS Kubuntu! However, may consider use it without KWallet!

I have Telepathy 0.4 on precise (trough backports) but on google chat I can get no file transfer or video chat (regular chat works fine)......file transfer was working on the 0.3 ver.
maby some leftover configs in the way as I had removed/purged the 0.3 ver but upon installing the 0.4 ver it already had my google act. set up ? strange as I had done a purge

It's in the Kubuntu Backports PPA.

Is there a Telepathy 0.4 for 12.04? I have the beta ppa installed and kde 4.9, but telepathy is still only 0.3

[Koriun]

yep, i'm sure.. I used telepathy on Ubuntu/gtk and used gmail.com as server and 443 as port (ssl port usually is not blocked in ISA proxies)
unfortunately google closed this server as gtalk entrypoint :S

You can use talk.google.com:443, Pidgin connect to it well.

right click on the systray's arrow, select System Tray Settings, It can be added under the Extra Items section

ah great.. I haven't seen it before. tnx for pointing this out!

[lucazade]

Also in many cases it is not possible to overwrite default server/port.

@lucazade: are you sure that u used gtalk behind proxy ?

Are you running 12.10? Not that it is any different in 12.04
make sure you have installed plasma-widget-telepathy-presence, which should have been brought in when installing kde-telepathy

Goooood.

But there is one problem with telepathy tray icon.
Secondary click on that icon doesn't close(hide) opened "Telepathy Contact List" window, like other applications (amarok, skype, kmail,...)

The main problem I have with Telepathy is connection behind of proxy.
Can anybody connect via proxy ? or Telepathy doesnt support proxy ?!

[claydoh]

You think it can be there. but it is not there.
