Maybe your remember my previous entry about my frustrations with AOL Instant Messenger? Well, I figured out what was going on. Apprently, "gaim" was configured to use the "TOC" protocol instead of the "Oscar" protocol. To fix the problem, I zapped all my gaim configuration except the buddy list. I then hand-edited the "blist.xml" file and replaced all instances of "prpl-toc" with "prpl-oscar". Vola! My buddy list is now showing up in "AIM Express"!
I have dim recollections about AOL abandoning support for TOC protocol. They are focusing all their effort with the Oscar protocol. I've never had a problem with TOC before, so I'll chalk this one up for the record.
What I really want to know is when can I get support for "voice chat" in gaim?
