Re: [Ekiga-list] SIP Hardware Phone compatability with Ekiga
Why not grab a GSM/Wifi mobile phone such as a Nokia E 65 to do this ? Do these use SIP? I thought they all used UMA (which is much more friendly to your cell provider). Stefan ___ ekiga-list mailing list ekiga-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list
Re: [Ekiga-devel-list] Call for testing our new ekiga.net platform
- do we consider that people are too lazy to test and that no test has been done - do we consider that it works well [...] You need to use the stable release of Ekiga 3.0 (3.0.0, or 3.0.1) to test the new system. Our current Ekiga trunk (SVN) has its outbound 1 - I hadn't yet read this announcement 2 - Debian testing doesn't seem to have Ekiga-3 yet, so all my machines are still on Ekiga-2.x I'm sure I'm not the only one in a similar situation.

Re: [Ekiga-list] Privacy policy of Ekiga
I hope you will be able to point me to the privacy statements of Ekiga or otherwise You will take this subject very seriously. Are you talking about ekiga or ekiga.net? I think both are really important, is it not? Not really: the Ekiga application is just that: an application. It happens to use the network, just like Firefox, but it doesn't (modulo bugs or nasty people adding backdoors) connect to any machine to which you haven't explicitly asked it to connect. I don't think a privacy statement is important here. You seem to assume that Ekiga is an organization, in the way that Skype is an organization. It is not at all the same thing: Skype is a commercial organization with a proprietary product and service; Ekiga is an open source application, and there is a community that supports and uses it. To use myself as an example, the only information that ekiga.net has access to are my name and email address. There need be no privacy statement, since there is no collection of personal data, such as Skype might require and use. The fact that Ekiga.net is not commercial doesn't make much difference: it does keep a database of users with their email address and names, and (more importantly) it does keep track of which ones are connected and from where, so it know about IP addresses and may potentially keep a log of when which user connected with which IP. And the police may order Damien to give out some of that info, or some dire financial need (or juicy offer) may push Damien to sell that info. So a privacy statement explaining what info is kept (e.g. is a log of IP addresses kept?), that to which it is intended (e.g. it's not intended to be distributed to any third party, except the name database which is freely searchable, IIUC), and the worst case guarantee (all the data may be stolen, subpoena'd, sold, ...).

Re: [Ekiga-list] 2 client ekiga on the same pc
i'd like to have two client sip ekiga on the same pc (windows o.s.). it's possible? If the same camera device and the same soundcard can be shared, and if you change the ports being used or bind ekiga to two different IP addresses, it should work. Shouldn't Ekiga automatically use other ports if the default ports are already used? I find the current single-user assumption rather inconvenient indeed.

Re: [Ekiga-list] sound quality
Given recent mention that I'm using an out of date version of Ekiga (2.0.3) because it's what Ubuntu currently has in it's repositories, what are my options in terms of sound and quality? No matter which Upgrade to Debian testing? Stefan ;-) ___ ekiga-list mailing list ekiga-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list
Re: [Ekiga-list] Ekiga should save settings (gamma, saturation) of my USB webcam
luvcview then prints this out: Video driver: x11 A window manager is available video /dev/video0 Unable to set format: 5. Init v4L2 failed !! exit fatal Only solution I know to get back my video is to reboot the entire system (annoying, so MS Win 3.1.). Anybody who knows how to get that v4l2 driver working again without rebooting? I'm cc'ing Luc Saillard, an expert in terms of video and V4L2 ;-) I found a solution on mailing-list https://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/linux-uvc-devel/ : the only way is to reset camera, either by calling usb_reset_device() or by unplugging the cord. The USB Logitech webcams appear to have a hardware bug (something about usb timings) and as far as I understand it, there isn't a workaround for it. Unplugging the cord of my webcam I can do but I'd like to know with what command i can do a usb_reset_device(). I guess some experts on linux-uvc are Laurent Pinchart and Evgeny. There's a patch to linux-uvc that does the usb_reset_device when it seems necessary. Check the linux-uvc list for it. The latest version of the patch I could find was pretty old and the code has been completely shuffled since then (split into several files), so it took me some manual work to apply the patch. I posted the resulting new patch to the linux-uvc mailing-list recently (maybe a couple weeks ago). It seems to work for me.

[Ekiga-list] Use a larger video image
Is there some way I can choose the size of the video image? I'm not talking about zooming the image (which I can do with C-+), but changing its real resolution. It seems to be about 160x100 right now. Stefan ___ ekiga-list mailing list ekiga-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list
