   Hi everybody,
 
   I have found a strange problem with ekiga 3.0.1 and Opensuse 11.1. When 
 I 
 receive a call I can hear ekiga ringing, but the answer popup window which I 
 was used to from earlier ekiga versions does not show up. Given that one 
 cannot answer the call from the main ekiga window, the result is that I am 
 unable to pick up. 
 
   Initially I thought it must be a problem related to kde 4.2, which I am 
 using 
 in one of the computers... so I installed opensuse 11.1 again in a different 
 computer, but this time using as default desktop kde 3.5. Same problem: ekiga 
 3.0.1 with kde 3.5 on opensuse 11.1 does not produce an answer window.
 
   I have tried upgrading to 3.0.2 with the same result. Anybody has 
 experienced 
 anything similar? I am thinking maybe the opensuse installation is missing 
 some gnome library, but it is pure speculation.
 

Ekiga 3.0.x can be compiled with libnotify support or without. If it is
compiled with libnotify support, you get a nice notification in the
notification area like in the following screenshot :

My guess is that Ekiga has been compiled with libnotify support, but for
some reason, the notification can not be displayed.

Try running it in a terminal, perhaps there are warnings that could lead
you to a solution.

Re: [Ekiga-list] Cannot answer calls (no popup window)

Hi,
I have the same setup opensuse 11.1 and ekiga 3.0.1 and get the same  
problem.


The difference in my case is that it varies,
1) I have had the popup occur click on it and answer the call as normal.
2) The ring occurs and no popup
3) the ring occurs and it is ringing for an extended time and then the pop  
occurs.


I have never seen the notification box in the tray.
Is there a setting for this?
To be clear I do have the icon in the tray which normally shows a green  
circle.

When I answer a call it shows a set of headphones.
Is it supposed to show something else?

Thanks,
Brian

Hi Damien, and thanks for the response.
	Sorry, I forgot to mention that I had already tried the terminal, and  
running

ekiga in debug mode(s) also, but didn't see anything suspicious (lots of
messages related to ALSA and the video, but nothing that looked like it  
could

be related to this when I receive a call).

	Additionally, I just finished a new opensuse 11.1 installation in a  
laptop

and the same thing happens yet again! I did it mostly because both of the
previous installations were done in 64 bits processors and I wanted to  
try
with the 32 bit version of the distribution. No difference. Btw, one of  
the

ekiga installations was downloaded -as binaries- from ekiga.org, so I am
pretty sure the problem has to be related to Suse's system installation,  
not

ekiga itself.

	I am very puzzled by the fact that nobody else has reported this here  
or in

SuSE forums. If I have managed to find this problem in 3 out of 3
installations with different hardware somebody else must have seen it  
with
this distribution. I have found reports of people who have it working,  
though.

Anyway, I'll keep trying.

Thanks again.
