superflyKilos: ekiga is not the same as skype. You can't ekiga to ekiga, you need a SIP server09:44
Kiloshi superfly when i run ekiga on 16.04 i can do the echo test but on 14.04 it doesnt work09:45
Kilosi actually managed to send a couple of text messages to debs lappy then it stopped connecting09:46
superflyKilos: I doubt an echo test needs a SIP server, it's just to check that your microphone is working.09:46
Kilosso what do i do ?09:46
Kilossjoe09:46
Kilosi think it runs through a sip server at ekiga09:46
superflyKilos: the reality is that 14.04 is a dead OS for desktop09:47
Kilosthats our ids09:47
superflyKilos: ah, I see, they do have a SIP server09:47
Kilosyes but her old ibm lappy is too underpowered for 16.0409:47
Kilosyes my id is sip:kilos@ekiga.net i think09:48
Kilosor ekiga.com09:48
superfly.net09:51
superflyKilos: you'd need to upgrade ekiga on 14.04. That's a version that is over 2 years old. 2 years in technology time is like 50 years in human time.09:52
superflyKilos: maybe find a PPA09:52
Kilosi will try that ty. i have 14.04 on an external here so ill get it working here first then get tara to do the setup for her mom09:54
Kilosive read so much about probs peeps had with 14.04 but havent managed to get any of their fixes to work09:55
Kilosand im trying to find a wiring problem in ians golf, that has made it lose spark09:59
