Re: [GnomeMeeting-list] Newbie: slow video

["Paul Nixon" <khobar95 hotmail com>]

Hello Damien,

I tried your suggestions and they did help. However, I still see severe 
picture breakup on the Netmeeting end over my LAN. Frame rate improved 
considerably, but not quite what I was expecting (I think I'm getting about 
2 fps now). And no, I am not using any sort of bandwidth limit.

Since I'm running Mandrake 8.0 and I saw something about Mandrake RPMs 
sometimes causing problems, I wonder if there might be something missing 
from my install?

Also, I attempted to install Gnomemeeting Mandrake RPMs onto an older 
Mandrake (7.2) system and it complained about libc6 or something like that. 
I am somewhat familiar with that error and understand I would have to 
install new libraries. However, before I attempt to delve into that can you 
advise me if there are any issues I might face? The last thing I want to do 
is create a problem on the 7.2 system since it is my primary server. I have 
thought about upgrading it to a newer version but it is running very 
smoothly and I don't want to get bogged down in reconfiguring my firewall, 
etc.

Thanks,

Paul
