From Tkabber Wiki
The last but one release of Tkabber — 0.10.0 automatically resolved some of the problems that were explained here; however, some people still use the previous release 0.9.9 so the questions related to this version were moved to a separated FAQ.
If an issue you have encountered is not explained here feel free to visit xmpp:tkabber@conference.jabber.ru?join to discuss it, and if we manage to find a solution it will be published either here or in one of the articles.
Since this page (and some other pages) were growing too much, one day it gave big problems to the server, so we decided to divide this FAQ into several pages.
