Duplicate of Bug #68283?
No, that open/save thing is working for me. I have only trouble with file transfers.
Ok, I found out what the problem was. I'm using KDE and everytime i change the GTK theme to "Crux" Theme with gtk-theme-switch, gaim crashes. If I use the "Default" theme gaim is working properly and i can do file transfers. Switching back to "Crux" will cause gaim to crash on file transfers. So is it a bug in gaim / gtk / gtk-switch-profile / Crux?
Pretty sure it's a problem with the Crux theme, and it's not the first crash bug that has been caused by it.
