Comment 1 Matěj Cepl 2007-08-15 14:10:43 UTC

no, really, I was not doing anything special.

Comment 2 Xavier Claessens 2007-11-22 13:03:13 UTC

Could you please provide empathy debug output[1] if you can reproduce, otherwise we can close this bug since it's an old version of empathy.

[1] Instructions are in the debugging section on http://live.gnome.org/Empathy

Comment 3 Matěj Cepl 2007-11-22 15:15:32 UTC

Too long time ago, probably don't have those logs anymore.
