[Bug 582268] Re: Linphone-3 + Webcam = crash on startup

 

I found the same bug reported against the same version 3.2.1 in Debian
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=580806

Debian sid has the 3.3.1 version packaged, so I presume it will be in
the lucid+1 repository. I am eager to test the new version to see if
this is fixed.

I am finding that after I have successfully launched linphone using the
command line, it works perfectly when launched from GNOME, as long as I
don't attempt to turn on the webcam feature. I presume the cli versions
successfully write whatever linphone needs in the user directory and the
GUI can launch. I used linphone when traveling in Europe recently and
did not have a problem with it.

(Twinkle is fine, but unfortunately it doesn't have a dtmf numeric
keypad so I can't use it to retrieve my voice mail, and also its dialogs
are too tall to use easily on my netbook. I just added linphone-3 to the
maximus exclusion list using gconf-editor, and I find it much more
netbook-compatible than twinkle.)
