Description

I am using Kubuntu 9.04, 9.10, and Linux Mint 7 KDE versions and I am connected to the im.bitlbee.org server. After a while, the connection auto dis-connects. The connection last for about 20 min then cuts off.

So we figured out a little while ago that this is a problem with Opera. Not sure what goes wrong exactly, but Opera thinks the connection is dead and disconnects. If you could help out with debugging this a little bit more, that'd be great.

that would be great but what do you want me to do? I am somewhat
technical but will help as best as I can

My apologies for the slow reaction: I decided to just download Opera myself and see what's going on. It seems very odd, the connection disappears without any warning. I don't know why...

This seems to be working now and has been for a while. I am not sure why I got this? I reported it to Wilmer and he seems to have fixed the problem.

Hah, I didn't realise it was you back then. :-) It looks like this is indeed a ping issue, and I now really see Opera breaking the connection. This is a bug, I should try to report it with them.

In the meantime, BitlBee can work around it by sending pings more frequently.

So, not our bug, cleaning up this ancient ticket!

FWIW, this can be set in bitlbee.conf
