 Would like to know if there's any app available which can do that.
 Gaim-VV seems to have stopped devel. Ekiga doesn't work on windows.
 Skype works.. but it's only audio on Linux.

Netmeeting on Windows should be able to talk to Gnomemeeting on Linux
(the app does not *have* to be the same, just the protocols and codecs
etc.)

Ah, in that case there's text + video in the form of YM + USB Camera 
supported under the native windows client an kopete.  I think it was YM 
kopete was getting camera support for, maybe it was MSN?

The keyword here being should

If anyone can tell me how to set it up it would be great. I've already
got an ekiga.net account signed up and I can't seem to be able to get to
call. (I think I'm not logged into the directory or something)

In ekiga i put - sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (then I press connect) to the
windows netmeeting. Doesn't work.

Under Netmeeting, I put in sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED] and it give me error etc.
Seems like no matter how, I can't get in.


If anyone knows how to, please do let me know.

 While I'm sure we'd help you if we could, this is a very general gentoo
 list and not many of us will have even tried to do what you are doing.  I
 think you'd be better served by asking on the netmeeting newsgroups or the
 gnome(meeting)/ekiga support areas (mailing list, newsgroup, IRC, w/e they
 have).

Also check out kopete if you run KDE. it has a plugin for the old netmeeting 
protocol too.
