I haven't tried Empathy, but I've never had Ekiga work. It never connected & transmitted um...anything. One time I tried with Spec (another ubuntu member), and we could get my webcam to send images to him using OpenWengo, but not Ekiga. Wengo's a Qt app, though, I think. -- Mackenzie Morgan Linux User #432169 ACM Member #3445683 http://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.com <-my blog of Ubuntu stuff apt-get moo -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
