Gyach Enhanced used to support voice/video for yahoo since more than 2 years. But it is not maintained anymore, and wasn't working all the time.
gtalk2vip a really good alternative for calling almost everything ! Read the faq here : http://gtalk2voip.com/faq.shtml To start , you need a SIP client , any SIP client should work (ekiga,gizmo,linphone……). You need a Voip account for this. If you don't have a voip account configured , you can get free one from gtalk2voip…..or if you use Ekiga, it will create one for you during the first time wizard. Once you have the voip account configure in your client , you can start calling other IMs : # GTalk: [EMAIL PROTECTED] can be reached by calling to sip:user_at_domain.com @gtalk.gtalk2voip.com # MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] can be reached by calling to sip:user_at_domain.com@ msn.gtalk2voip.com # Yahoo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] can be reached by calling to sip:user_at_yahoo.com@ yahoo.gtalk2voip.com I tested it on GTalk ,MSN and the voice was very clear and quick….but it didn't work with Yahoo Messenger for some reason. Regarding Gizmo , last month I mentioned that the new version supports calls to yahoo/msn/gtalk. Later , I found that it uses the same gtalk2voip service. So it is not like they have done anything (except importing your contacts). Also u can try Empathy. It´s audio capabilities are awesome, it is only working now with GTalk / Jabber protocols (at least for me), and I think with SIP protocols it'll also work well.
