           Summary: make talk.google.com as the default server for google
                    talk plugin
           Product: kopete
           Version: 0.50.80
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kopete-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: molecularbiophysics at yahoo.com


Version:           0.50.80 (using 4.1.2 (KDE 4.1.2), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.24-19-generic

The following 4 facts are well known:

check "Use protocol encryption (SSL)" checkbox
 check "Allow plain-text password authentication" checkbox
 check "override default server information" checkbox
 and set server to "talk.google.com"
 port 5223 (not 5222 as stated on their web siteexternal link).

source: http://wiki.kde.org/tiki-index.php?page=Google+Talk+support

Why do you still have the server and, ssl different in the _default_ kopete
dialog. 

Every user has to google and find the above page and then change it to use
google chat. why not make the default settings usable for an _ordinary_ user.

Many thanks,
Karthik
