There's a Gnome program that implements some VoIP protocol... I think it's
actually a videophone, but without web cameras it will just do normal voice.
The protocol it implements I think is a protocol that Cisco did most of the
heavy standards work on.
Let me check my notes....
Linphone:
http://simon.morlat.free.fr/english/linphone.html
Things it uses:
Sound Card Layer: ALSA, OSS
Initiation: SIP ( Session Initiation Protocol )
Transport: RTP
Codecs: G711-alaw, G711-mulaw, GSM, TPC10-1.5
It also says it works with Windows etc VoIP phones, which could be
interesting
Let us know what you think of it if you find it successfull
