Thank you for your quick response. Let me first describe a few things so we 
both understand the environment of use.

Video Issue:
I first set up Ekiga back in March, 2010 on a 64 AMD machine that has Ubuntu 
10.04. Installed it as I had need for Voice/Video for family visiting out of 
state. I set up two of these machines here in my home office. Have a Asterisk 
PBX set up in my house for personal use. First machine I setup for test to see 
how well it communicated using Ekiga's network without my PBX. Could get it to 
register, but never could get it to do the echo test or other test. Was able to 
make a few phone calls to/from friends who use Ekiga, but even doing that it 
would not pass video. It sees the camera, but no out video and would not 
receive video. Have yet to get video working. Have all ports open in router 
operating on ADSL Line. Same when using on my T1 Line. Installed Ekiga on 
second machine and tried doing video just on in-house PBX network, both 
wire/wireless, still no go. Same after upgrading to 3.2.7. I have even tried to 
use one machine with Ekiga and the other with X-Lite, still no video. Have 
tried using video after setting up with configuration assistant and by doing it 
manually, no go on both. I even broke down and did a no-no in my house and got 
a Windows Machine running XP from a friend downloaded Ekiga for Windows XP, 
same probs, no video. Infact, on the Windows Machine the only camera that I 
could get to work was an OLD EarthLink/Sprint camera I had here. I tried my HP 
Delux & Eye Toy Camera (both of which work the Linux boxes) after installing 
all drivers and Ekiga wouldn't work with them, kept giving error notices.

Tool Bar Issue:
When looking through toolbar found that the following wasn't available:
Under Chat:  When call in progress,  "Transfer Call", "Suspend Video" are not 
accessible.
Under View: In the Video/Picture selections ONLY "Local Video" is available and 
in the bottom half of that same view box "Normal Size" & "Full Screen" are not 
accessible.

I must say in all defense to Ekiga, I like the program, if I could get it to 
pass video I would like it a great deal more. This program has a bright future 
as far as I am concerned, but for now, I'm stuck having to use an on-line 
service for seeing my grand kids.


Thanks
