 Subject: Re: [Ekiga-list] New User Experience
 
 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 results to Centos 5.1,
 audio but no video. In fact it did not even detect the camera as a
 camera only as a USB audio device even after installing V4L2. 
 
 Barf

I'll check the version and report this after I get a chance to 
see if Ekiga makes reliable connects with this Ubuntu distro, although 
I am pretty sure others here have reported on this recently. I do 
wonder if your video prob is kernel config issue not related to Ekiga. 
So far, when a webcam was not detected/working with Ekiga here on my 
side, it was due solely to not compiling in the kernel support for the 
webcam in the first place. I presume Ekiga has no video drivers of its own. 
As for V4L2, I do not know this even matters. The driver module for 
my Philips ToUcam webcam happens to be marked for compiling in the 
kernel config file by default and gets loaded automatically, but this may 
not be true for your webcam. Does any other application in your current 
Debian or Centos installs find your webcam? Can you see if the driver 
module loads (lsmod)? If not, you should look into configing your kernel 
if the driver even exists in the kernel source, or search for a download 
for a driver module. Even for my ancient webcam, I prefer to download a 
more recent driver module because it offers higher resolution than the 
kernel driver that comes with my Linux Slackware distro.

2009-01-26 Thread D Webb


I just successfully launched Ekiga version integrated into 
the Ubuntu LTS 8.04.1 CD. Ubuntu was not even installed, 
just booted directly from the CD. I was not online so got a 
error messsage that looked related to this. Ekiga found my 
ancient Phillips USB ToUcam webcam without needing to 
go through any configs in kernel or Ekiga. On this same box, 
Ekiga definitely crashes under Linux Slackware 12.0 + Gnome. 
On another machine connected network, that same Ubuntu CD, 
again booted from the disk (not installed to HDD), also found 
my network and I was online without any network configs. 
Ekiga launched, but no one to connect to.

I will try in coming days to make some SIP connects between 
Sweden and California and see if actual connections work. If 
so, booting with the Ubuntu CD should prove a fast/easy way 
to use Ekiga for people like me working on other Linux 
adventures.

 Hi All,
 
 New user of Ekiga, some comments which may or not be helpful. First the
 positive comment, the video response is far better in linux than
 Windoze. It worked fine on the 2 Windoze machines I tried it on
 
 I had a frustrating time trying to get this to work on linux. As you
 know when starting out with something new you're never quite sure if its
 your hardware, software or the application that's not working. It did
 not help that the trouble shooting tips were for version 2 and mostly
 irrelevant to version 3.
 
 So I tried first on my main distro Fedora 10 X86-64. Got video but no
 audio, sometimes got a could not start device message sometimes not,
 after reading this list I removed pulse audio but still no audio (in or
 out). Sometimes would not start the camera and needed to log out/in to
 get it working again.
 
 Next Fedora 10 I386, same problem as above although I didn't remove
 pulse audio.
 
 Next Centos 5.1 i386, yaay, good audio both ways but no video probably
 not in the kernel.
 
 Next Open SUSE 11.1 x86-64 on a laptop, nothing worked errors for both
 audio and video devices , didn't try to tweak anything.
 
 Next (yes I have few linux machines) Fedora 8 i386. Success, it works,
 so now we can have confidence that Ekiga does work and can now try to
 get it to play nicely on the other machines
 
 I agree with the comments made else where in this list that a plugin to
 handle pulse audio is a must. At the end of the day how many people will
 be willing to maintain a machine with an old or degraded distro just to
 use Ekiga. Not too many I'd bet and fewer as time goes on.
 
 It would also be extremely helpful if you published a list of distros
 that Ekiga works on (without extensive hacking) and those it is known
 not to work on, such as any distro using pulse audio.
 
 Summary.
 When it did work it was very good but trying to get it to work was
 probably more effort than it was worth (about 16 manhours of fiddling
 and reading).

Re: [Ekiga-list] can't get ekiga to work

2008-10-01 Thread D Webb


You can surely get some kind of help here, but you'll need to 
give specifics. I have not been able to get Ekiga running due 
to problems with audio driver. It did however install and find 
my camera and sound card. My problem is so far seems restricted 
to the Linux sound drivers, like the defaults on a Slackware 12.0 
install because that is the only error I get in association with Ekiga 
stalling. It would be nice to hear more details from people who 
actually do get Ekiga to work under Linux. Specific hardware and 
Linux distro/versions that work would be nice.

   Assume? Did you actually use it? Several people have told me it was 
   running,
   but when I asked if they were able to make a connection they had never 
   tried.
   Ekiga has crashed while trying to make connections. Webcam and sound can
   otherwise appear to work.
  
   the echo test does make a connect somewhere; does it not?
  
  http://wiki.ekiga.org/index.php/Fun_Numbers
  
  If not and these do not require a connection, then no, I have not
  actually  used it. At all.
 
 If the echo test works, the rest must work. It behaves like any other
 ekiga softphone you would connect to.

  _ Damien Sandras

This makes sense, as long as the echo (SIP: 500 ?) works reliably. That Youtube 
link I just 
sent, which was a Canadian review about this particular hardware, specifically 
mentions 
and demonstrates that the webcam will not work under the EEE version of Ubuntu, 
so I assumed Ekiga won't work, at least the video won't. If someone here got 
audio, video 
AND Ekiga working under EEE Ubuntu, then please feel free to post details of 
your success here and on Youtuibe, hopefully explaining why this difference 
from the 
Canadian.

I have working webcam on another machine. Sound device works fine 
with everything else except Ekiga. You maybe recall I brought up the 
PCM problems several moons ago? Still no fix in sight. Since this is 
pretty standard Linux (Slackware) install, I reckoned it affected a lot of 
people trying to use Ekiga. I still wonder what Linux distro, etc actually 
works with Ekiga.

That left me asking about specific hardware and Linux installations. The 
Asus EEE is very convenient because a huge number of people bought 
this, so we would all be talking about essentially same hardware and 
software. Potential replacement for mobile phones!

Damian, I know you're in here... it would be nice to see a working,

The one you and I discussed on this list several months back. You asked me to 
post a bug report and I did:

Ekiga: sndrv_pcm_hw_params: Assertion `err = 0' failed

‏Maybe now you remember? I think a lot of people did complain about 
this, but maybe not to this list. You commented that this is not an Ekiga

was happening together with Ekiga crashing. Never got Ekiga working

 Thanks for your comments,

Hi again,

I can't think of anything more right now. It seems we have similar SMP machines 
and 
kernels. The memory problem on older machines with less memory was one I knew 
about because I have seen it reproducibly. I also know that adding swap made it 
go 
away, again, on a much older machine. I have had problems with Ekiga crashing 
when I try to make a call, but I have left it on for days at a time without 
making a call, 
but with my webcam installed and it looked to keep grabbing frames in a steady 
stream for the entire time. My webcam is a USB Philips ToUcam using the 
pre-packaged 
kernel driver. 

I have heard of some webcam problems regarding V4L2 with Ekiga that disappeared 
once switched to V4L (maybe vice versa as well). I guess you could try changing 
the 
webcam settings in Ekiga and see what happens.

I cannot find any way to edit the original bug report to increase the priority, 
but 
I think we have made it quite clear there is a crash affecting a lot of people. 
Not 
sure I can do much more for the moment.

Thanks for all your help so far. Greatly appreciated!

[Ekiga-list] details: Ekiga crash on Slackware 12.0

2008-04-03 Thread D Webb



OK, I can now offer some specifics of my Ekiga 2.0.11 crash
problem under Linux 
Slackware 12.0. I am trying to run Ekiga in KDE 3.5. Ekiga is from gsb-complete 
install (whatever version was current towards end of Jan 2008). Here are some 
details in chronological order.



1.  Installed alsa-plugins-1.0.16 like
this:

patch -p1  alsa-pulse.patch

./configure

make

make install



Rebooted/checked /usr/lib/alsa-lib. Updated files and links found.





2. Ran Ekiga offline. Got these two errors:



--- error 1 -

Error while starting the listener for the SIP protocol



You will not be able to receive incoming SIP calls. Please check that no other
program is already running on the port used by Ekiga.



--- error 2 

Same as above for H.323

-





3. Tried removing some modules:



Removed following modules:

bash-3.1# rmmod snd_seq_dummy

bash-3.1# rmmod snd_seq_oss  

bash-3.1# rmmod snd_seq_midi_event

bash-3.1# rmmod snd_seq   

bash-3.1# rmmod snd_seq_device

bash-3.1# rmod snd_pcm_oss

bash-3.1# rmmod snd_pcm_oss

bash-3.1# rmmod snd_mixer_oss



Still get the two above errors

---



4.  Tested if this problem occurs while
online. Launched Ekiga online, 

still the two errors pop up. I went ahead and tried to make a call. 

Ekiga crashed, giving this:



--- error 3 --

bash-3.1# ekiga

 This is the current normal behavior.


Hmmm. This also happens when I am online, but I have successfully 
received incoming calls earlier. Should this error also pop up even 
when I am online, and also when Ekiga really can receive an 
incoming call?

  Here is the core dump that happens when I now try a call.

  Any ideas?

So is this your working (formerly working) UbuntuStudio 7.0 and Ekiga 2.0.11?

The assert error is how I ended up on this list. no solution so far, but 
by all accounts it is a bug in alsa-lib that I have reported with ALSa. 
I do not get the core dump so far. Any idea if you get the assert error 
even if Ekiga works fine or if it is directly related to this crash?

  The Windows version is beta software. We do not have any maintainer for
 it (I even removed it from the website). If we can not find a
 maintainer, that means there is no interest for it, so we can drop it.

Ouch! I guess that basically kills Ekiga. Its appeal was that it worked on 
Linux and Windows which greatly increased its versatility. There just are 
not that many people using Linux.

What is required to be a maintainer?

Re: [Ekiga-list] Ekiga vs Skype

2008-03-29 Thread D Webb

  Hello,
I follow the discussion with great interst. I use Skype and VoIPBuster a lot, 
because the children and family of my wife live in the States, Australia and 
China. However, until now I am not able to get Ekiga working. The webcam is not 
working, and I found out that I have to pay for the calls using Ekiga. (home 
phoners/fixed).

Question: I am a real newbee, any reamrks concerning the items I wrote above. 
Please comment.

HAns Minekus
-

There are a lot of VoIP programs out there these days. I decided to follow 
Ekiga 
because I support the open software concept. Ekiga has thus far been offered 
to the world as a very generous gift. Of the programs I have tested, Ekiga is 
proving to offer the best sound quality, but many people are having problems 
getting it to work reliably. I have been trying Ekiga 2.0.11 that comes with 
recent 
distro of Gnome under Linux Slackware 12.0 and kernel 2.6.21. I have not yet 
complete success yet with this OS or FreeBSD 7.0. I also failed to get it to 
work 
under Windows, but this might only be because of some mis-understandings. I 
think you need to install GTK+ to get it to work in Windows, but following the 
chage-logs, I got idea Ekiga should not depend on GTK because there were 
some comments about removing the error message about requiring GTK. What 
OS are you using?

Others,

There is no error, I actually have gotten very good sound quality with a 56K 
modem. Ekiga is crashing for now and I am trying to solve this. However, 
I can say with great certainty the sound quality has been very good when Ekiga 
does not crash. Interesting point that Skype was originally described as 
working 
well with no more than a modem connection. I have never once experienced 
that. It seems Ekiga has some efficiency that ends up benefiting the end user 
in terms of efficiency and sound quality, which is why I want to see this go.

  _ Damien Sandras

I think this is because you have been re-directing bug reports to other 
software like alsa-lib, which I reported. However, alsa-lib is pretty much 
standard on all Linux distros. So if Ekiga is crashing because of a 
conflict with alsa-lib, regardless of where the fault lies, Ekiga won't 
work reliably under Linux without some kind of changes. I have yet 
to see Ekiga work with Linux (default Slackware 12.0 install + Gnome) 
or FreeBSD 7.0, although a friend finally did get it to work under Windows. 
I know of one report of someone getting Ekiga to work under Ubuntu, 
and I am thinking to give that a try, although I do not yet understand why 
the distribution would make a difference, assuming they are all using 
ALSA. There are plenty of people around here who have tried and failed, 
so it is clear there are problems. I guess I could ask around for specifics 
from others. I already reported the alsa-lib problem. I certainly do not want 
to detract in any way from your hard work. Ekiga looks like great 
software.

This is rather new desktop computer I would think can handle anything 
Core2Duo 
2.0 Ghz and 2 Gig memory. Latest hardware and Linux Slackware 12.0 and Ekiga 
2.0.11. Connection is 56K modem. I knew for a while Skype can be real choppy on 
a modem connection, but wanted to see if this would also be true with other 
VoIP 
software. I was REALLY surprised sound quality with Ekiga was same as regular 
phone, 
and vastly better than Skype. I am very sure of this. I have repeated it a 
number of 
times. For the moment, there are still problems with Ekiga crashing, but that 
is 
separate matter that I hope to solve. When Ekiga has not crashed, sound is 
really good, 
despite also having a webcam.

 remember that skype is a p2p app while ekiga acts as client for a server.

Hah, didn't know Skype was p2p, I always thought it was also going through 
a server since there is a login. Thanks for your thoughts, as they are

 rules. So the comparison with information that is shouted in a stadium  
 is not right here. It's also not a good attitude of the citizens of a 
 country to just accept that everyone can violate your privacy. Citizens 
 should put effort in making good rules for privacy or to protect it. 
 Privacy is a human right of a democracy.

Right, wrong, the law and self-preservation are 4 different things with 
infinite permutations of interpretation. Please consider thinking of your 
privacy much like your bicycle, you from the Netherlands. You will want 
laws to punish bicycle thieves AND a strong lock. The law exists because 
there are people who do not follow it. I expect privacy laws and the 
corresponding violators to co-exist. I do not see privacy statements 
helping much.

2.0.11. The Windows version was from Ekiga site today, 10 Mar 
2008. The bugs listed as fixed in 2.0.11 appear to be still 
present. For instance, 

-

1. 
Linux Slackware 12.0 Ekiga from Gnome Slackbuild.
I get assertion errors:

sndrv_pcm_hw_params: Assertion `err = 0' failed

I am using well known Ensoniq ES1371 chipset/driver. The ALSA 
mixer controls sound fine, and sound system in general works 
great otherwise with all other software. It was proposed this 
assert error might be an ALSA-lib problem, but it looks 
like Ekiga programmers have been working on assertion errors 
in Ekiga, fixing (some of?) them in 2.0.11.

---
2. Windows XP version 5.1.2600, different computer.
I get the Error installing GTK+ runtime that was 
supposedly fixed in 2.0.11.


---
Looks like a great program, but have had little to no 
success getting this to actually work yet on Windows, 
Linux or FreeBSD. The light at the end of the tunnel 
looks bright though.

 This bug is an ALSA bug, not an Ekiga bug, we can not do anything about
 it.

Thanks for response! Any thoughts on how to end up using Ekiga under 
Linux, given this ALSA bug has apparently been around for a while?

I maybe should have mentioned that I already have those patches. Did not

 You should probably add a comment on their bugtracker in that case.

 I am running UbuntuStudio 7.10 and Ekiga 2.0.11
 which is Linux and all works fine. I do have some problems with sound
 breaking up but it works.

Excellent! I can see Ekiga is almost working on my Slackware box. It looks to 
work fine until it crashes due to this assert bug. Could you please offer a few 
details? For instance, which kernel and are you using ALSA (version?) or some 
other? What audio hardware?

Along these lines I am about to buy a notebook, and would be inclined to go 
for hardware that others have used Ekiga with success.

 Btw, are you using pulseaudio ?

  _ Damien Sandras

I am pretty sure, yes. I took no specific action to add or remove it. I just 
installed Linux Slackware 12.0 straight off the DVD without any custom 
settings. I saw a message about pulseaudio during bootup. Could you 
imagine removing it might help? If so, I would welcome tips on how.

 Sorry to but in, when I use Pulseaudio ekiga sound will not work. I
 kill pulseaudio and ekiga works ok.
 I do get these errors:

Thanks for butting in. More ideas means quicker fixes.

I have wondered about this for some time. In connection with Ekiga crashes, 
Pulseaudio keeps popping up. I don't know what it is, but pretty sure it comes 
installed by default on Slackware 12.0, which is what I have. 

I should at least try removing it. So, how do I kill pulseaudio?

Re: [Ekiga-list] Privacy policy of Ekiga

2008-03-19 Thread D Webb

 I assume that everything I read, write, upload or download on the Internet 
and dates, times and IP addresses are being recorded by several 
governmental agencies at any given moment. Thus far, I have rarely been 
proven wrong. I assume everything I do on the Internet could just as well 
have been shouted at the top of my lungs in a football stadium.

It is in this sense that I think privacy statements, while being a  profitable 
marketing gesture for a business, offers no more privacy than no statement 
at all. Let us say you are going to tell someone over Ekiga about some terrible 
crime you will commit. Do you really think you will escape police intervention 
or a prison sentence because of a privacy statement? I guess you could 
try and file a lawsuit from a prison cell, but would it not be easier to accept 
my interpretation of VoIP as shouting in a football stadium?

Finally, a lawyer could butt in and tell us all these complicated issues and 
scenarios and pitfalls, and the infinite variances in different countries. 
Again, 
would it not be easier to just assume you are shouting in a football stadium 
and just accept the Internet does not have much mercy for privacy?

 at a terminal do a ps -aux|grep pulseaudio and this will give you the
 process  numberthen
 do a kill -9 xxx .   (explain xxx = process number.)


OK, well, the standard kill -9 is easy enough.

So how do I prevent it from loading into memory in the first place? Is 
pulseaudio in 
the kernel or somewhere else?
