This makes sense, as long as the echo (SIP: 500 ?) works reliably. That Youtube
link I just
sent, which was a Canadian review about this particular hardware, specifically
mentions
and demonstrates that the webcam will not work under the EEE version of Ubuntu,
so I assumed Ekiga won't work, at least the video won't. If someone here got
audio, video
AND Ekiga working under EEE Ubuntu, then please feel free to post details of
your success here and on Youtuibe, hopefully explaining why this difference
from the
Canadian.
