That was the problem! But now I have another issue, because my microphone doesn't seem to want to work in Ekiga ... I can get playback through my speakers (using alsamixer) but no matter what I do I can't get Ekiga's echoing system to echo back my microphone (sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) ... It's frustrating at this point in time, but I hope this is as easily solvable as the webcam issue. -- If programmers deserve to be rewarded for creating innovative programs, by the same token they deserve to be punished if they restrict the use of these programs. - Richard Stallman
