Friday, March 28th, 2008Pidgin works pretty good for an all in IM client., however the default install that comes with Ubuntu doesn’t have any kind of notification module installed.
If you want messages in the tray when you get IM’s go into the Synaptic Download manager and install pidgin-libnotify
