Getting empathy to work

I am new to arch linux. I just installed telepathy and all the protocol clients.

I added a new account in gtalk, and it never seems to connect. Can someone guide me, i am pretty noob in all this.

Thanking you,
Mehrzad

Re: Getting empathy to work

works here on clean installation. i just selected Gtalk, completed user as user@gmail.com and completed the password and hit connect.
you can also try to set from Edit->Accounts->Select google account and from advaced click on Encryption required (TLS/SSL).

i notice once that i had to remove that account and add it again.

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Stupid mistake, after entering your email id and passwd, in advanced settings, set the server to talk.google.com. I immediately got connected.
