           Summary: Uses generic "telepathy" jabber resource name, causing
                    clashes.

SOFTWARE VERSION: 4.2008.23-14

Maemo's IM application uses the default "telepathy" name for it's jabber
"resource". I believe this is generally set by the user (and is user-visible
from contacts' IM clients) to things like "office", "home", etc.

But using the default makes it very likely that it will clash with another
client on another computer, such as Empathy, which also makes this mistake. The
result is frequent connection errors, and contacts' seeing you log in and out
every few seconds. 

I suggest that you use maemo or N810 as the default jabber resource name.
