However, alsa-lib is pretty much standard on all Linux distros. So if Ekiga is crashing because of a conflict with alsa-lib, regardless of where the fault lies, Ekiga won't work reliably under Linux without some kind of changes. I have yet to see Ekiga work with Linux (default Slackware 12.0 install + Gnome) or FreeBSD 7.0, although a friend finally did get it to work under Windows. I know of one report of someone getting Ekiga to work under Ubuntu, and I am thinking to give that a try, although I do not yet understand why the distribution would make a difference, assuming they are all using ALSA. There are plenty of people around here who have tried and failed, so it is clear there are problems. I guess I could ask around for specifics from others. I already reported the alsa-lib problem. I certainly do not want to detract in any way from your hard work. Ekiga looks like great software. Dee Windows Live Hotmail is giving away Zunes. Enter for your chance to win. |
