It is working fine here on 6 different computers and a number of my friends have used kopete on facebook too.
The settings i have are in the basic settings tab your Jabber ID is username@chat.facebook.com and in the Connection tab select Enable protocol encryption (SSL) and Allow plain-text password authentication.
One problem a friend met a while ago was that he hadn't set a username up on facebook (at least in the past you only needed an email address to sign up and setting a username was optional). You can set your username if you haven't already in Account Settings on facebook (second item down on the Settings tab). I once heard (possibly wrongly) that purple-facebookchat doesn't use the jabber interface so it accepts email addresses as well as usernames.

thank you for your reply. I did that but I get connection refused
is there a similar thing like purple-facebookchat to kopete, that is not using the xmpp?
Thanks, YB.
