 * “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”.
