Title: Msn Not Working In Qpe-gaim
Post by: kruithofmc on December 06, 2004, 04:11:41 am

I have an Zaurus 5600 with open zaurus 3.5.2
qpe-gaim installs fine but when I trie to start an MSN account it spits out the following to the console:
 
** (process:769): CRITICAL **: file msn.c: line 637 (msn_close): assertion `session != NULL' failed

Does anyone know what this means?

For me, a programmer, that would mean that when I was programming I thought " what if the object (msn connection) isn't valid, what should I do, because I don't want to crash" then you would use an assert to catch that situation and don't crash.

Perhaps you miss a msn lib or something or you can't make a proper connection?

I also have the problem of opening GAIM.
I had already make sure I had install all the libraries...but still

BTW, how to open under console, I forget how to do so

I found the answer in gaim's FAQ.  Here it is:

Q.     
MSN won't load!
A.    
Make sure you have the required SSL support packages. See the installation instructions for more information.

So what did you install exactly ?

I'd be interested to know as well... I have not been able to get either MSN or Yahoo to connect, although Yahoo at least gives the impression it's *trying* to connect.

To be able to use MSN, I disabled all feed and add the qpe-gaim feed. I remove gaim and the reinstall it. I use libcompat on gaim. Then it works fine. A bit slower but it works.
