Well, usually windows people use things without knowing 
what they do. The approach in GnomeMeeting is intentionnally
more professionnal.
There are people on #gnomemeeting, and on argo to communicate
with. Unfortunately, only about 15 people register on argo.
Many people only browse it without registering.
If we count the downloads of gnomemeeting, we can approximate that
there are at least 6500 users of GnomeMeeting, without counting 
people who apt-get or download from Cooker or mirrors.
The only thing to do to be able to have a decent communication
with netmeeting is to make your friend install the ms-gsm codec.
Easy to do.
Other problems are related to your specific configuration and linux,
not GnomeMeeting. Drivers thing is a linux thing, not a gnomemeeting thing.
