[Bug 284876] Re: Default jabber server doesn't work

[Morgan Collett]

Hi James,

The error stating "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Un...etworkManager doesn't
exist" (as it displays for me) is a separate issue, but not an actual
problem on Ubuntu. It relates to a sort of flight-mode for the OLPC
hardware, disabling the wifi radio. I've logged bug 287028 about that.

As long as the "Server:" bit below that is empty, this particular issue
is solved.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: sugar-toolkit

Sugar has a default jabber server to add to new user profiles, which is olpc.collabora.co.uk. This was a development server but now runs experimental changes, so it doesn't provide the collaboration features any more. Using this server causes link local collaboration, the fallback, to fail too because Sugar thinks it is connected to a valid server.

A newer stable upstream release 0.82.9 has removed the default jabber server and allowed an empty string:
