FLOSS VOIP Client Software

2008-01-25 Thread Amit Uttamchandani
Hello fellow debian users,

I am trying to look for a decent FLOSS VOIP software that allows me to 
communicate to Windows/Mac users. Skype is out of the question since it does 
not even support Debian PPC (which I have).

I have heard of Ekiga. How is that? Does that work with Windows/Mac users using 
Skype clients?

What do you guys use?

Any information will be very helpful.

Thanks,
Amit

icedove 2.0.0.9-3 seriously broken

2008-01-25 Thread Jeff Green

Hi All,

Just wanted to warn anyone with a testing install to beware of the  
current (2.0.0.9-3) icedove. It is broken (bug 461981) and an  
immediate downgrade to the previous version (1.5) didn't work. So I'm  
doing a somewhat contorted dance to do email for awhile, at least  
until it is fixed. I'm trying a local build of icedove, but fear that  
that may be wishful thinking. (It is also one very large build,  
requires more than 1GB of disk space...still don't know the upper  
limit.)

try wengophone[1] (it's already packaged (lenny + unstable) 
it supports Win/Mac/GNULinux

skype ... works as far as I know only with skype, never did any research.
I'm still bothered with the fact that the mic on pb5,7 is still out.
I recon no one is doing any work to get it fixed since it's kind a old, ever 
since intel happended.

kphone works. of course for my part, I cant talk back.

It's a known bug:

You can install 2.0.0.9-1 from http://snapshot.debian.net/
or see my test in #460406

Well icedove 2.0.0.9-3 is really seriously broken on powerpc - it does 
not start anymore - see #460406 and #460172.


Kind regards,
Marko
