Where did you find them?

I just posted this elsewhere in the forum. Seeing as other seem to be having the same problem as me I thought I'd better post this here as well:

I bumped into a problem with witter. I'd forgotten to configure OAuth and witter just hung on startup when trying to retrieve my timeline. I've posted a bug report about this.

If anyone else bumps into this problem I solved the issue with witter hanging on start up by opening xterm and typing:

Code:

mv .witter .witter.back

You then have to setup your twitter account details again making sure that you configure OAuth in the account setup screen.

Never mind, I found them. They are in Home/User in case you wondered. I delete them and everything worked just fine. Thanks!

I can't seem to make twitpic work as of lately (I havn't been using witter for some time because I thought it was broken in devel-rep, turned out to be oauth)..

Anyway, does twitpic work for others?

I'd guess that twitpic is broken for similar reasons, twitpic is a separate service, and witter users it by providing username/password, I'm assuming now that basic auth isn't supported I'll need to figure out out to use oauth via twitpic.

i cannot get witter to work at all. I have setup my account, and managed to get an oauth number fro twitter and enter it into witter, but the app just does not pull any information in at all.

i have been through this thread, and have deleted the folders in /home/user and started again, but still at square1.
