Re: [GnomeMeeting-list] Ekiga doesn't stay logged into Asterisk

Sorry Damien,
I will try to look into bug 119611, its just that I have little 
knowledge in the whole debugging trade.
I was sure you got the time, thanks for pointing it out.
I am not sarcastic here. I want Ekiga to work, and will find time to 
learn how to understand gdb.
