Hi
Want to voice chat with Google Talk user!!
On Ubuntu 8.04 Empathy can be used to voice chat with Googletalk users.
On an updated Ubuntu 8.04; Using Synaptic Package Manager add the following third party repository and install the packages given below.
Instructions:
System --> Administration --> Synaptic Package Manager
Go to Settings->Repositories
Go to Third Party Software --> Add;
Enter the following line in APT line:
Code:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/telepathy/ubuntu hardy main
Close and Reload
Search and mark the following packages for install:
Empathy
telepathy-gabble
telepathy-mission-control
telepathy-stream-engine
and Apply i.e. install.
Use the latest packages as older packages do not allow Gtalk/Jingle VOIP.
After installing start Empathy (Applications --> Internet --> Empathy Instant Messenger)
Configure your gmail account.
Cheers
