1. Where can I find a linux compatible webcam? How much is one expected to cost?
Logitech Quickcam Express (The USB model). The driver I use is at: http://www.ee.oulu.fi/~tuukkat/quickcam/qc-usb-0.5.1.tar.gz
(Used on version 8.0 of the "name-forbidden-to-use-distro" :-)
2. Is there a Linux MSN messanger client that supports the new features? In particular, the voice and camera connection?
Not that I know of. Talk all your Windows friends to use NetMeeting which interoperates with GnomeMeeting. You can hint them that NetMeeting (just like GnomeMeeting) has more control than MSN on the picure size and position (e.g: your image as a separate window -- I think they added that only in the latest MSN release).
On the same thread. Anybody used NetMeeting and/or GnomeMeeting over NAT? I'm trying to avoid running some proxy on the firewall/NAT machine itself. Last time I tested (very short test), it negotiated the session with the other side (I could see the address/name of the NetMeeting partner, and they could see my address), but no video data was passed. Any hint from someone who actually use this would be helpfull.
Thanks,
Hell, I can't even connect unless my firewall forwards the port to the machine. Even then, I don't get any audio (no video indeed).
On the other hand, when I use MSN messenger on Windows, I get bidirectional video (but problematic Audio, though that may be due to a different reason).
Is there some special NAT handler for H323?
