Since the ekiga runs on another computer, dualboot with XP, I cannot
(because I do not know how) copy the file output.txt and attach it to
this email. the contents are obviously inconclusive, but here is what
is in the file:

2009/08/08 17:16:26.206 0:00.077 Version 3.2.0 by on Unix Linux
(2,6,28-14- generic -i686) with PTlib (v2.6.1)) at 2009/08/08 17:16:26.205
2009/08/08 17:16:26.206 0:00.077 Ekiga SVN revision : unknown
2009/08/08 17:16:26.208 0:00.079 Ekiga registered on D-Bus:
org.ekiga.Ekiga

At this point I must have hung the phone up
There was no sound at all
When I try 520, The phone rings but no other sound is heard.

on a computer with 8.04, both 500 and 520 work

On XP, (this computer runs XP from a 160GB disk and Linux from a second
40GB disk) Ekiga 500 and 520 calls work to the extent, that I hear the
female voice but not what I say in response.

That may be caused by my mike.

Hope all this helps.
