1) Wow, Eugen.Dedu - that's a great tool/list! 2) Alan - I agree with you 100%. E3 is simply unuseful to the _users_ if it isn't available to them. I'd think the project would be much better off the project's leaders ensured that an E3 version was promptly made available to be installed, & made

Thanks for that, I'd be interested to know how you get on. Is that Ekiga V2 or V3 on the Ubuntu CD? Ubuntu has an installer to put the live CD onto a USB flash drive with persistent memory. If Ekiga will work of that, that would be very useful. I've just tried it on Debian Etch with similar result
