Hello.

The second link above; the "Comparison of VOIP Software" is the one to 
which I referred in the contact with you, when I could not remember what 
exactly was the wikipedia web page.

> From that web page, I found that Linphone apparently runs on each of 
Linux, MS Windows, and Mac OSX.

I have mentioned that to my brother, so I will find what he does about 
it and possibly trying it on his Apple computer (assuming that his 
computer is running Mac OSX - I do not know which OS he is running).

I have installed Linphone to try it.

Using Linphone, I have just attempted a phone call to you (Greg). 
Linphone shows the call as having been successful, with a duration of 
about 45 seconds, but, after the ringing stopped, the line went quiet, 
and I did not hear any sound coming from the other end.

So, I assume that Linphone can not communicate with Ekiga.

That is my assumption, but I do not know enough for that assumption to 
be valid.

According to the web page at 
http://wiki.ekiga.org/index.php/Ekiga_Interoperability , 
communication between Ekiga and Linphone (v1.5), should work, for video 
and audio.

The version of Linphone that I installed, is 3.3.2-1, from the packages 
repository for Debian Linux 6.0.x .

Anyway, if you could advise what, if anything, shows in your event 
history, for that attempt, it would be good.
