G'day
I was wondering what would be the best suitable software for video chatting with other msn users!
I've been using gaim and Kmess as well as aMsn but none of them have the video support!
cheers |

everytime I try the web cam on aMsn, my system freezes up... this is just about the only time I've seen my Kanotix box freeze up!!!
Too bad that even Skype's not released their video confrence patch for linux yet!!
You'd think someone would put a video confrence package for open source!!? |

What is ekiga?
Ekiga (formely known as GnomeMeeting) is an open source VoIP and video conferencing application for GNOME. It supports many audio and video codecs, and is interoperable with other SIP compliant software and also with Microsoft NetMeeting.
Works in kde too, atleast last time I used it. Been around quite a while too. |
