multiplatform instant messaging capable of connecting to
multiple networks (multiprotocol) and accounts (multicuenta) so
simultaneous.

Installation

Next, we will explain how Pidgin is installed on
Debian and derived from it as Ubuntu:

Steps for installing and configuring Pidgin:

1 . – Through Debian (also in distributions based on Debian) we will use the
package management system (Advanced Packaging Tool – APT) to perform
our installation using a console (you can also use programs from
graphic interface as Synaptic and the like).

2. – We add the code of the Pidgin repositories in our sources.list file

(/etc/apt/sources.list), in order to do the installation through the system
APT.

## Pidgin # #
deb http://bit.ly/2RkrMKs etch-backports main contrib non-free

3. – Then proceed to the actual installation, we do

then use the APT tool, writing in our console the command
"apt-get install pidgin" (without the quotes), or through the graphic interface of
Synaptic doing a search of the package and then selecting it for
installation and installing the previously selected.

Next we will configure our Pidgin to be able to use one or several accounts of
simultaneously

1. – To create an account do CTRL + A or go to Accounts -> Manage and

add an account (As an example we will first try our
Hotmail account and then Gmail account.)

two. – First we select the protocol to use, in this case the MSN for Hotmail

(note that Pidgin is multiprotocol)

3. – In the same way do it for Gmail. (the Google Talk protocol is used.)

It should look something like this:

4. – Then to activate each of the accounts must go to
Accounts -> Enable account, then enable the account (s) that
we want to use in the window (active session).
At the end it should be as follows:

5. In that window I explain that I'm using the sessions of

"hotmail" and "gmail" at the same time, having all my contacts in the same window.
(note that Pidgin is multi-user).

] You can see that Pidgin has a cleaner and simpler interface. So
now hands on the keyboard and enjoy the XD Software.
