Using Google Talk with Gaim

I signed up for Google Talk some time ago, but just could not get the sucker to operate within Gaim successfully.

Seems I was missing an advanced setting as found at http://www.google.com/support/talk/bin/answer.py?answer=24073 . Now I have a successful login, I just need some other friends to join Google Talk. Yes that means you.
