ohphone -- not a  gui, but functional with a few tweaks (esp if 
openh.323 gets updated to deal with Zaptel)

KPHONE -- Kphone works best for me, but Kphone doesn't have a dialpad 
to dial tones during the middle of the call, so the demo that * comes 
with can't be run. Kphone (3.1, the latest) also has a habit of 
crashing if you do something even mildly stressful, such as hang up 
while Kphone is trying to connect.

LINPHONE -- Linphone does not work with ALSA, nor with ALSA's OSS 
emulation. I've used pre-packaged version of Linphone and compiled my 
own, using --enable-alsa to get it up and running. NOTE -- not all 
versions of ALSA let you do this! There's a silent failure to compile 
-- check config.log to make certain that the ASOUND_H is defined.

GNOPHONE -- Gnophone also does not work with ALSA, although I haven't 
yet tried to compile it from a tarball/CVS. With ALSA version 0.9.4, 
GnoPhone won't even give me a chance to configure the sound card. IIRC 
GnoPhone did work with 0.9.2 and possibly 0.9.3.

1. I invite comments from people who can get these clients to work 
with ALSA 0.9.4. I am working with the latest CVS of ALSA.

2. Are there other open-source clients that I've missed?

 Moshe
P.S. I've fiddled with the CVS versions only enough to get things to 
compile. E.g., in linphone, configure.in must be changed to find 
 instead of . Well, ok, I did add 
-mfmath=sse to some of the Makefiles but that should be harmless 
enough...
