Comment 2 for bug 1172818

Having same problem with facebook xmpp, all contacts are shown offline.
I am not using ubuntu and i have tried pidgin and connecting via ejabberd spectrum transport.
For me, this seems to be a problem with facebook.
This is the only result I found about this topic so I think not everyone has this problem.
Maybe it has to do with facebook account settings.
Did you change any settings in fb? I changed my password recently, but as soon as i can connect to xmpp, the password should not be an issue.
