me menu on 10.10

Asked by J Hughes

Hey, guys. I've been trying to set up Empathy Internet Messaging for Facebook on Ubuntu 10.10, but it keeps failing, saying either "Network failure" or "Authentication failure" when I try to enter in the username and password. What's up with that, and how do I fix it?
