Have you been able to get google talk to work?
http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=57985&hilit=ekiga
Also when trying to video chat using ekiga with someone with windows ekiga
apparently there is a non-free codec for H263 needed. Is there a way to
configure the windows version of Ekiga to use the libre codec that the debian
version uses?
I figured this was a good place to ask this since we are talking about skype
and video chat alternatives. I am looking for a solution, preferably using
libre software to video chat with all my friends still using proprietary OS's
(Mac and Doze).
