1. Background of the problem
Because I use the Linux system (UBUNTU), so login QQ has always been my problem. Webqq really good, but I still want to pidgin, because the single function from the perspective of Pidgin is still a good choice.
2. Steps to Resolve
PIDGIN-LWQQ is a pidgin plugin based on LWQQ development. LWQQ is based on WEBQQ protocol development, I agree with the author's ideas.
Support for Pidgin:
- Support for sending accepted text messages
- Support Send accept Picture
- Support Group Chat
- Support Send accept emoticons (use WEBQQ emoji theme in Settings)
- Support Avatar
- Support Set friend notes
- Support Change Friends Group
- Support Confirmation Add Friend request
- Support for temporary sessions of the group
- Support to visit QQ space
- Support for changing online status
- Multi-Account Login support
- Supports sending and receiving offline files
- Support Text Styles
- Support for group message masking
- Supports accepting file transfers

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lainme /pidgin-lwqq sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install pidgin pidgin-lwqq |
2), modify the configuration with Dconf-editor
add ' pidgin.desktop ' in com>canonical>indicator>messages:applications
The message icon will appear in the cue area pidgin
Com>canonical>unity>panel:system-whitelist modified to ' all '
The pidgin tray will show up.
Note: You need to log back in to the desktop
3), how to set the boot minimized start
the automatic boot start only requires adding a pidgin entry in the startup applications. Both name and command are set to pidgin.
Minimize startup of the original program is not provided, need to install a plugin
?

sudo aptitude install pidgin-extprefs |
plugins>extened preferences is set to on. When selected, click Configure Plugin

Remove the Show buddy list entry in taskbar to hide the taskbar.

6), Effect
3. Summary
Pidgin is indeed more in line with my requirements than empathy (toward the cloud). and can receive send files, pictures and support groups.
