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.
