[Ekiga-list] problem compiling Ekiga 3.0.1 under Kubuntu 8.04.1 LTS

2008-12-20 Thread Edmund Laugasson

Hi!

Everything went fine but in the almost end compiling help gave error:

Making all in help
make[2]: Entering directory `/data/soft2/ekiga/ekiga_3-0-1/ekiga-3.0.1/help'
if ! test -d bg/; then mkdir bg/; fi

make: *** [all] Error 2


Is it problem, that /home/edmund/soft2/ is a symlink to /data/soft2/ ??

Could not find the file bg/ekiga.xml

I installed additional components:
flex bison pkg-config intltool libgtk2.0-bin libgtk2.0-dev libsigc++-2.0-dev libxml2-dev 
libgnome2-dev libgnomeui-dev libebook1.2-dev libldap2-dev libxv-dev libdbus-glib-1-dev libsdl1.2-dev 
xsltproc


Certainly, I compiled before and suggestions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware 
are clear.


Also I followed instructions at http://wiki.ekiga.org/index.php/Linux_Users

All other components compiled and installed fine. It seems like /'m quite close to get all 
components compiled but such a error occured.



Thank you in Advance for helping,
Edmund Laugasson

[Ekiga-list] Logitech Quickam Pro 9000 and ekiga

2008-12-20 Thread Claudio Baeza Retamal
Hello,

I have a Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000, work fine in skype and other
programs under linux, but don't work with ekiga.

Logitech pro 9000 uses uvc driver and uvc only uses V4L2 API, however,
ekiga try to use V4L1 with my logitech webcam.

how can I say to ekiga that it uses V4L2 with my webcam?

[Ekiga-list] Re (2): failure in registration of sip account

2008-12-20 Thread PETER EASTHOPE
Eugen and others,

> Please try ekiga 3 if possible, it is available on debian experimental.

Right oh; thanks.  

Now I should retreat to lists.debian.org but the 
discussion started here and this is the consequence.

The ekiga here is 2.0.12 and Debian is lying to me.

dalton:/etc/apt# apt-get -t experimental install ekiga
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree  
Reading state information... Done
ekiga is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
dalton:/etc/apt#

According to 
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-apt-get.en.html
"3.8 How to keep a mixed system", this line is in /etc/apt/sources.list.
deb-src http://linux.csua.berkeley.edu/debian/  experimental main non-free 
contrib

Seems that I am not using apt properly or 
upgrade of ekiga is blocked by a dependency.

Thanks for any ideas,   ... Peter E.

Tried to test snapshot from 18th and 19th but none of them
compiled. The (first) error message was:

With Symmetric NAT, it can not work. You really need to do something so
that it is not a Symmetric NAT. Perhaps port forwarding or something
else.

Are you also 100% sure your router does not support SIP ?
His router is a Motorola 2210-02-1006 which is what AT&T is providing 
now for new DSL customers.  With Ekiga 2.0.12, it was initially detected 
as a symmetric NAT router, and he could call me, but I couldn't reach 
him.  After putting in the port triggering rule, it was detected as a 
port restricted NAT router, and we could connect in both directions. 
Now, with Ekiga 3, we can't communicate in either direction (except for 
a brief connection without audio or video when he calls me).  Nothing 
has changed except for Fedora 9 -> 10 and Ekiga 2 -> 3.


The reason is the symmetric NAT. However, I do not understand why the
NAT did not appear as symmetric with Ekiga 2.00. The STUN code did not
really change between 2.00 and 3.00 :(


It DID initially appear as symmetric NAT with Ekiga 2 (according to 
Ekiga 2's Configuration Druid).  Then, after setting up port triggering 
in the router according to


http://wiki.ekiga.org/index.php/Ekiga_behind_a_NAT_router#Symmetric_NAT:_Dynamic_navigation_of_NAT_routers

the Configuration Druid saw it as a port restricted NAT router.  This is 
exactly the behavior described at


http://wiki.ekiga.org/index.php/Ekiga_behind_a_NAT_router#SIP_only

so the behavior with Ekiga 2 is as expected, it's the behavior with 
Ekiga 3 that is confusing.

Hi,

It appears that the ST585 is doing something special when it sees SIP protocol
requests and forwarding the ports automatically, but the use of the STUN system
messes this up.

If this is the case, It would be useful to be able to disable STUN support in
the standard user preferences dialogs of the Ekiga app and to note this in the
error dialog window. Also I guess it may be possible to fix the STUN support if
there is an issue here ...


It is one of the things I want to work on for 3.20 : detect if STUN is

OK, this would resolve most issues mentioned in my first post labeled

I am about to try and get a Windows Version (3.0.2) of Ekiga working
for my mother in laws computer. I suspect that her router will also
support SIP as it is relatively new.

How can I disable the STUN support in Ekiga in Microsoft Windows
so that Ekiga will work with a router that implements automatic SIP
port forwarding  ?

Apparently, you are trying to register a private IP. Perhaps you have STUN

It should work. However, 3.20 will have a far better LDAP

The behavior is normal. It is actually a perfect router.

NAT is something bad, as it rewrites the packets. The problem with NAT
is that some protocols (like SIP) require you to change the private IP
address inside the SIP packet. A good NAT implementation should be able
to do it for most common protocols. Most NAT implementations can deal
with FTP transparently for you. Unfortunately, until recently, that was
not the case with SIP and you needed workarounds like STUN or port
forwarding. 

But recently, more and more routers started to have a NAT implementation
that supports SIP. In that case, no port forwarding, no STUN are
required.

That is the perfect situation. Please note that it only forwards RTP
ports because it knows that is a connection you established yourself. It
is able to understand what happens.

It is one of the things I want to work on for 3.20 : detect if STUN is
required or if the router supports SIP.

Ekiga requires an external server to do that.

If it is enabled, it is in the Network Settings page.

Indeed... there is no need to enable port forwarding for the RTP ports

This is nice, but also creates a strange feeling about this router.. is 
there anything else it forwards without letting me know?



I second that.

One thing you may find, if you are using a Thomson ST 585 V6 router as I 
am, is

that once you have disabled STUN then the ST 585 appears to automatically
open the RTP ports for you. ie you don't need to manually set the router
to port forward them, at least on my setup ...
It seems to also forward them to the correct host (I have a number of 
systems

behind the ST586).
See my message "No Echo Test response: STUN Problem with Thomson ST585"

However, being a newbie I found it a little harder than it ought to be. 
If it's an objective that Ekiga should be easy to setup, here are some 
remarks:


Sound device selection.

- There is no support for testing the output devices
  ("Play test sound") for output nor ringing device in
  the device selection menu. I think it should.

- On my Fedora box, some selections makes Ekiga really weird
  e. g., it's possible to connect but not to disconnect.
  The bad thing is that there is no user feedback indicating
  that this is a problem with the sound devices, which makes
  it hard to figure out what's going on.

NAT traversal and router setup:

- My router is a NAT router with the dreaded "Symmetric NAT".
  There *is* an error message when Ekiga is started which
  basically says that I have to configure the router manually.
  The crucial term "Symmetric NAT" is *not* mentioned in this
  message. I finally learned to start ekiga with debug output,
  and grep for 'stun' to reveal this fact. This should really
  easier, the information about "Symmetric NAT" should be
  displayed to the user.

- Once I understood that  my router was doing Symmetric NAT I
  configured port forwarding according to the docs (dynamic,
  triggered ports is not properly handled by my Thomson
  router). I came to a point with working connect/disconnect
  but no sound.

- After some more reading, I understood that the stunnel
  stuff was in the way. So I needed to disable stunnel. There
  are no switches in the UI for this, and even in gconf
  there is no "Use stunnel" option. What I did was to set
  the stunnel host to a non-existing value. This created a
  lot of error messages, and a working Ekiga... This should
  be easier and more straightforward IMHO.

The issue to setup Ekiga with a router doing symmetric NAT couldn't 
really be out of the box, I understand that. But I still think this 
process could be easier with better error messages and configuration 
options. Or, maybe, a "Symmetric NAT" wizard?


Last but not least, I shouldn't have taken the time to write this unless 
I really appreciate what you are doing...
