This worked well....Linphone now opens from the GUI. Must admit I had
to give up on MenuLibre as it apparently requires slackware 14. Vector
is working on that now.
As to the slow loading, that problem is solved (I took all the "friends"
out of linphonerc. However, I now have to copy and paste contact info
(phone numbers), so that's a bummer. I am looking at faster ways to do
this.
As to the problem with "enable self view" I can't tell if that is fixed
or not (I doubt it) as I no longer have any video codecs in
preferences. They are apparently in linphonerc, but don't show in the
gui window. I probably don't know how to pass VIDEO=yes to the build
script. Here is what I do:
# ./linphone.SlackBuild VIDEO=yes
I then use installpkg to install the SBO file. Linphone runs when I do
this but does the Video Input Device is greyed out and no video codecs
show in Preferences.
You have already done more than enough. Still, any thoughts you have
about any of this, are most appreciated.

Please let me know when you do. I tried to use the address book of
Claws Mail and I have failed to make a click-able sip: URI.
In the meantime I think I have a very strange solution which you might
like.
Using the Start Menu Application launcher (of freeDesktop.org).
More information athttp://wiki.xfce.org/howto/customize-menu
Add a category called VoIP and then extract the attached desktop file
to ~/.local/share/applications/
This is the content of the attached file:
[Desktop Entry]

Name=iptel Early Music
GenericName=Test Music VoIP Bot
Comment=Call to iptel Early Music
Type=Link
URL=sip:early_mu...@iptel.org
Icon=sip-bookmark
Categories=VoIP;
You might want to do some of the above actions using MenuLibre.
