It is actually very simple to make Turpial connects to DL.NET, based on the tutorial I did some time ago on this very subject.
Basically what we have to do is edit the file /usr/share/pyshared/turpial/api/protocols/identica/identica.py and replace this:
class Identica(Protocol):
def init(self):
Protocol.init(self, 'Identi.ca', 'http://identi.ca/api',
'http://identi.ca/api', 'http://identi.ca/tag/',
'http://identi.ca/group', 'http://identi.ca')
For this:
class Identica(Protocol):
def init(self):
Protocol.init(self, 'Identi.ca', 'http://tt.desdelinux.net/index.php/api',
'http://tt.desdelinux.net/index.php/api', 'http://tt.desdelinux.net/index.php/tag/',
'http://tt.desdelinux.net/index.php/group', 'http://tt.desdelinux.net/index.php')
If you use Xfce behind a proxy, you can solve from this form, or of This other.
