This is what I've done,

--> Downloaded the source packages from downloads section in 
www.gnomemeeting.org
--> Unzipped each of them into separate directories
--> Compiled and PWlib as:

$ ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-plugins
$ make
$ make install


--> Compiled and built OpenH323 as:

$ ./configure --enable-rfc2190avcodec=//usr/include/ffmpeg --prefix=/usr/

/$ make/

/$ make install/

--> Compiled and built gnomemeeting as:

$ ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --disable-gnome
$ make
$ make install


Is there anything else I'm missing??? Btw, i've added the H.263 
capability in the src/endpoint.cpp file thats all.

Thanks,
Sanjay.
