Version: 0.50.80 (using 4.1.2 (KDE 4.1.2), Kubuntu packages) Compiler: gcc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.24-19-generic The following 4 facts are well known: check "Use protocol encryption (SSL)" checkbox check "Allow plain-text password authentication" checkbox check "override default server information" checkbox and set server to "talk.google.com" port 5223 (not 5222 as stated on their web siteexternal link). source: http://wiki.kde.org/tiki-index.php?page=Google+Talk+support Why do you still have the server and, ssl different in the _default_ kopete dialog. Every user has to google and find the above page and then change it to use google chat. why not make the default settings usable for an _ordinary_ user. Many thanks, Karthik
I vote for this wish. I'd like it too!
Some one remarked in IRC/kopete that it would be possible to make a clone of jabber plugin as google talk in "Which messenger service do you want to connect ? " so that the server name and details are automatically changed. Alternatively, a check box can be put in the "Connection Tab" like "Select Google talk service" or like that. many thanks,

This is not needed anymore. Kopete now can connect to google talk server without specifing other server settings.
