BloGTK (Linux)

“An error occurred while connecting. Check your settings.”

I know that this isn’t the BloGTK blog … but I am stymied by this error message. I am (trying to use / using BloGTK 1.1 on Ubuntu 8.04).

Although I seem to have my blogs set up properly, I get this message IMMEDIATELY after trying to connect. It’s not like it’s timing out because a password is wrong or it’s waiting for a 404 message. It’s sudden.

I also cannot select either of the blogs I’ve set up in the editing screen … they simply don’t show up in the selection boxes.

BloGTK looks to be even better than Windows Live Writer … except, at the moment, on my machine its borked.

I’d be happy if you could just point me to a forum for BloGTK. Of course, I’d be even happier if you could tell me how to fix this, instead.

And no, loading a copy of Windows doesn’t count as “fixed”.
