Facebook recently released XMPP support for Facebook Chat to allow users to directly add Facebook Chat to clients like Pidgin without the need of workarounds. They also provided instructions (as a part of their new site tour) for setting up Facebook Chat in pidgin:

1. Go to "Accounts" and select "Manage Accounts."
2. On the Basic tab, enter the following info:
   Protocol: XMPP
   Username: <your Facebook username>  (i.e. ambrosa )
   Domain: chat.facebook.com
   Resource: Pidgin
   Password: <your Facebook password>
   Local alias: <your Facebook name>   (i.e. ambrosa )
3. Click the Advanced tab, then enter the following info:
   Connect port: 5222
   Connect server: chat.facebook.com
   (Uncheck the box labeled "Require SSL/TLS")
