[Ekiga-list] ekiga for roaming laptop use
Hi, Ekiga works nicely, it was the only voip app that managed to pass my NAT setup without any fuzz, and I tested five of them. But I'd like to use it on a roaming laptop. The outgoing net interface changes between three possible interfaces and it can change while Ekiga is running. In such a case I have to a) quit Ekiga, as I cannot configure it to use an interface that wasn't up on startup b) ensure the interface is up c) start Ekiga again d) configure the outgoing net interface in Preferences e) restart Ekiga, as it doesn't retry the SIP registration right after the config change (maybe it does so later) That's really awkward. If Ekiga would just use the interface with the default route on it and recheck this if a network transaction fails, that would be much more convenient.

Hello, > Did you kill it with Ctrl-C or with killall -9 ekiga ? > Because the backtrace does not contain anything useful. Ctrl-C > You could also use strace and examine ekiga -d 4. I have solved it! In the strace output I found that it tried to access an sftp resource through gnome-vfs using libsftp. I have also noticed before that when I started gthumb it was asking for the password for the same sftp resource. (I have ignored that because I had no time to find the cause.) The reason for this behaviour is the following: I had added a bookmark to this resource to nautilus! After deleting this bookmark ekiga starts perfectly! :) What do you think, to whom should I file in a bug report? Thank you very much for helping me, I am happy to be able to use ekiga again (now I can delete linphone! :) ) Tobias ___ ekiga-list mailing list ekiga-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list
