+ <title>Set the nickname password</title>
+
+ <p>
+ Registering a nickname is useful to preserve your identity on IRC and you will be able
+ to use always the same nickname. In some cirtumstances, some IRC channels may be
+ configured to accept only registered nickname.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ If you have registered your nickname with a password on a network that supports nickname
+ registration, you can use that password with <app>Empathy</app> to identify yourself as
+ the owner of the nickname.
+ </p>
+
+ <steps>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ From the <gui>Contact List</gui> window, perform one of the following:
+ </p>
+ <list>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Press <key>F4</key>.
+ </p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Choose <guiseq><gui>Edit</gui><gui>Accounts</gui></guiseq>.
+ </p>
+ </item>
+ </list>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Select the IRC account from the box on the left of the dialog.
+ </p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ If the account is enabled, disable it by deselecting the <gui>Enable</gui>
+ check-box next to the name of the account.
+ </p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ In the <gui>Password</gui> text box, type the password you used to register
+ your nikcname.
+ </p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Enable the account by selecting the <gui>Enabled</gui> check-box
+ next to the name of the account.
+ </p>
+ </item>
+ </steps>
+
+ <p>
+ Once you are connected, you will receive a message from the nickname server that will
+ tell you of the established identification.
+ </p>
+
+ <note>
+ <p>
+ At the moment it is not possible to register an IRC nickname with <app>Empathy</app>, it is
+ only possible to use the password of an already registered nickname.
+ </p>

+ This kind of serverless messaging system is restricted to a local area
+ network and an active Internet connection is not necessary.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The people that use this service inside the same local area network

+ and files as with other services.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ All the modern local area networks should be able to support this kind

+ <title>Share your desktop</title>
+
+ <p>
+ It is possible, with some of your contacts, to share your desktop with them, or to start
+ using your contacts desktop. You can use
+ this functionality to show your desktop to your contacts, to ask for help or to
+ help your contacts resolve a problem.
+ </p>
+
+ <note>
+ <p>
+ In order to be able to share your desktop or to remotely use your contacts desktop,
+ it is necessary to have a remote desktop viewer application installed in your system.
+ </p>
+ </note>
+
+ <steps>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ From the <gui>Contact List</gui> window, perform one of the following:
+ </p>
+ <list>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Select the contact you want to share your desktop with, and choose
+ <guiseq><gui>Edit</gui><gui>Contact</gui><gui>Share my desktop</gui></guiseq>.

+ </item>
+ <item>

+ Right-click on the name of the contact you want to share your desktop with,
+ and select <gui>Share my desktop</gui>.
+ </p>
+ </item>
+ </list>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ A request will be sent to the contact you want to share your desktop with.
+ If they accept, the default remote desktop viewer application will be launched in
+ order to permit you to disconnect the user that is controlling your desktop.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ For more information about how to use the remote desktop viewer application,
+ refer to its help.
+ </p>
+ </item>
+ </steps>
+
+ <p>
+ When you share your desktop with someone else, it is possible to experience
+ system performance slowdown and low Internet speed.
+ </p>
+
+ <note>
+ <p>
+ Not all your contacts might be able to support this functionality. It is necessary
+ for them to have at least the 2.28 version of <app>Empathy</app> and a remote desktop
+ viewer application installed in their system.
