veejay: Just curious, but why not try a more recent version (2.10.9 is the latest)? That might have been an issue fixed in a later version.

You're trying my original build of 2.10.9, I take it? (Seeing as it's using the earlier gnutls package.)

I believe 'not authorized' errors often indicate you've got part of the login (username or password) wrong. Make sure you're setting the account up (adding it) as a "Google Talk" account, and that your username and password are correct.

Can you sign on to Google Talk with an 'official' client?

I compiled Pidgin 2.10.11 in Precise Puppy 5.7.1

I have disabled several features, but I can compile it again with the required features.. no audio and video related features of course.

This build uses Mozilla NSS and discards GnuTLS.. GnuTLS doesn't work with Pidgin here.

Don't forget to install ca-certificates and execute:

Code: Select all

update-ca-certificates
Download:
EXE: pidgin-2.10.11-i686-ssl-nss-precise.pet
NLS: pidgin_NLS-2.10.11-i686.pet
