That Youtube link I just sent, which was a Canadian review about this particular hardware, specifically mentions and demonstrates that the webcam will not work under the EEE version of Ubuntu, so I assumed Ekiga won't work, at least the video won't. If someone here got audio, video AND Ekiga working under EEE Ubuntu, then please feel free to post details of your success here and on Youtuibe, hopefully explaining why this difference from the Canadian.

I have working webcam on another machine. Sound device works fine with everything else except Ekiga. You maybe recall I brought up the PCM problems several moons ago? Still no fix in sight. Since this is pretty standard Linux (Slackware) install, I reckoned it affected a lot of people trying to use Ekiga. I still wonder what Linux distro, etc actually works with Ekiga. That left me asking about specific hardware and Linux installations. The Asus EEE is very convenient because a huge number of people bought this, so we would all be talking about essentially same hardware and software. Potential replacement for mobile phones!
