Part of my continued insistence on using Linux rather than Windows has meant using Pidgin as my IM client for corporate Sametime and Google chat.
Not being 100% happy with it I switched to Empathy. Much cleaner interface and generally more happy.
But, new IM conversations appeared on the notifications bar (Gnome3) rather than launching a new window. Annoying and very easily missed.
Nothing obvious in the preferences. Clutched at straws by disabling (Preferences | General) 'Display incoming events in the notification area' and bingo.
New tabs/windows open on a new IM - happy (for now)
