Look in the Notification Area of your panel. There is likely an icon there with a green circle over a "square" (which is actually a conversation bubble, but it's hard to see at the small size). Click on it, and your buddy list should appear.

If that doesn't help, follow the directions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace to get a backtrace of the crash and report it as a bug.

Can you help with this problem?

Provide an answer of your own, or ask Potsi for more information if necessary.
