Yannick: First of all, thank you for taking the time to respond to my bug report. I appreciate the effort.
Although I stated it in my bug report, I should have highlighted the fact that I used both "sudo gconf-editor" and "gconf-editor" to make the necessary changes...Neither worked. Yet, when I retried the non-sudo approach (per your suggestion) on a box that I never before used ekiga on (or "sudo gconf-editor" on), it worked without a hitch. The odd thing is that gconf-editor on my other box (at home and momentarily inaccessible) did not allow me to change the settings when I did not use sudo. That's what led me to use "sudo" in the first place. This, as you pointed out, doesn't make sense for user-specific settings. Any way, I seem to have a problem with the gconf settings specific to one box. I see the bug report has been closed and that makes sense. I'll try moving my user's .gconf directory and see if it works...
