Pidgin: Gaim 2.0beta5 Error on WinMe

Submitted by guillerx on November 22, 2006 - 7:56am

Yesterday I install the Portable Suite Standard Edition on a 512mb usb drive, all the applications works properly on WinXP (the pc that I have at home), but when I try to run GaimPortable2.0beta5 on a PC with WinMe (my pc at work) I get two Error messages, the first one said "Pango-ERROR **. Unable to create Win32 cairo scaled font. This means out of memory or a cairo/fontconfig/FreeType bug aborting...", the other one said "Runtime Error! Program: G:\PortableApps\GaimPortable\App\Gaim\Gaim.exe abnormal program termination", does any one know how to fix this situation?

Miranda: Smilies

Submitted by jessejazza on November 10, 2006 - 6:21pm

I used Miranda for a while in basic form about a year ago; liked it but then tried to install some plugins . . . and made a mess of things!!!

I'd like to try installing some smilies but put-off again by the vast number available which is rather daunting to the novice.

I was wondering if someone could guide me for a set of simple smilies abit like the Gaim has.

thanks

Filezilla-Runtime request

Submitted by jessejazza on October 28, 2006 - 6:12pm

I thrilled to bits to have discovered this site and have tried half of the programs. Filezilla doesn't seem to work and puts up a pop-up window with the following message. [It would seem that my amchine is missing something.]

"C:\FILEZILLAPORTABLE\APP\FILEZILLA\FILEZILLA.EXE
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the support team for more information."

I have used Filezilla standalone in the past with no problems. I loaded portable version when i formatted drives and reinstalled win98se.

Help much appreciated. I am hoping to use this application to access my website when i'm at work (school teacher). These portable applications for me using different machines - are a godsend.

Pidgin: Minimize, Buddy list Icons, and Groups.. OH MY!

Submitted by jimsu on October 27, 2006 - 4:30am

Hey folks, I'm running Gaim_Portable_2.0b3.1_en-us from a usb drive.

The application seesm to work find, but I'm wondering if I'm missing some configuration options somewhere. There are two things that I'm trying to accomplish.

1. When I minimize GAIM, I would like it to minimize to the system tray as opposed to the task bar. I thought it did this in previous versions, but I know that it doesn't seem to want to in this version.

2. In your 'buddy' list, where is shows all of who is online, the icons are SO BIG.. is there a way to either remove icons from that list of online users.. or make them smaller?
