  Mohammad Hafiz bin Ismail: How to Setup Skype USB Phone to use with Ekiga (under Ubuntu)

  In this post I’ll show you how to configure commercially available Skype USB phone to use with your Ekiga softphone.

  What do you need

  • a USB Skype phone
  • Ekiga (with registered account)

  

  Some Explanation on Skype USB Phone
  If you have spend your time doing surveying and window shopping, you may already come across one of these USB products which offers the ‘phone’ feeling to your Skype application.

  What some people does not aware of - these ‘Skype’ phone is merely a generic USB audio device built to look like a phone set. These generic chipsets are readily supported under Linux operating system without additional hardware drivers.

  

  Instructions to use Skype USB phone in Ekiga

  • Plug in the Skype USB phone and start Ekiga Softphone application.
  • Go to Edit, Preferences.
  • Under Devices -> Audio Devices, select the appropriate audio device for your USB phone. In my case, It was “Generic USB Audio Device”. Close the Preference Dialog
  • Your should be able to use the Skype USB phone when calling using Ekiga!

  p/s: Note that the keypad does not work with Ekiga in this case although through my inspection, 3 out of 3 USB phone keypad that I experimented on uses Microsoft Xbox xpad.c driver which can be use to interact with desktop application like Ekiga (it’s possible)

  Mohammad Hafiz bin Ismail: Ekiga VoIP - Talk across the Internet freely with Linux

  Posted: July 23rd, 2007, 8:31am BST

  Tags:  ekiga voip Skype Internet Phone   [edit]

  Those who are used to VoIP and internet phone might already familiar with Ekiga, an open source VoIP client for Linux and Windows operating system.

  Formerly known as GnomeMeeting, Ekiga allows you to place call and hold video conferencing session with any VoIP client that supports SIP and H323 protocol, including Microsoft Netmeeting, Gizmo, Linphone and XMeeting.

  Ekiga allows you to call ordinary phone number at affordable rate via its PC-to-Phone account, all you need to do is to purchase Ekiga PC-to-Phone credits and you’re ready to call any phones in the world!

  Stuck behind NAT? Ekiga enable you to talk over the internet even when your router does not support SIP/H323. The configuration druid will automatically detect your network connection and configures itself to adapt to your network environment.

  Here are some Ekiga’s Screenshots

  

  

  Interesting Ekiga Phone Numbers
  You might notice I dialed ‘500′ in my Ekiga. Well that’s the number for an Ekiga echo service useful for testing your software setup. Here are some interesting Ekiga numbers for you to try.

  • sip:500 - audio and video echo test
  • sip:501 - conference room
  • sip:530 - talking clock
  • sip:*266303 - some music
  • sip:*266300 - monkey sound

  Contact Me on Ekiga
  You might also want to contact me using Ekiga at sip:mypapit@ekiga.net, I’m pretty open for some quick conversation or a helo.

  p/s: I wrote this post as a respond to one of my blog readers request for me to write a post on Ekiga. Please refer to Howto Install Skype on Ubuntu if you’re more interested in Skype.

  p/s 2: Base on my personal experience, I found Skype voice quality and service is noticeably more superior than Ekiga or Gizmo, your mileage may vary however

  Colin Charles: Peeved about some software

  Posted: March 2nd, 2007, 4:22pm GMT

  Tags:  Skype ekiga sound20cards drivers sound20drivers   [edit]

  Its the end of another month, maybe I’m entitled to be a little peeved?

  Thunderbird. In Linux, its Edit -> Account Settings. On Windows and OS X, its Tools -> Account Settings. On OS X, its Thunderbird -> Preferences, on Linux is Edit -> Preferences. Yes, I see the importance of making local users a lot happier about where to find things, but I’d very much like it if it was made easier to support (so no matter what OS I use, I know if said application is to be used, I can guide someone over the air, on what to do).

  Ekiga of late, thinks I have a non-full-duplex sound card. Yes, I know, laughable, in the 21st century. Look at this in amazement:
  

  Could not open audio channel for audio reception

  An error occured while trying to play audio to the soundcard for the audio reception. Please check that your soundcard is not busy and that your driver supports full-duplex.
  The audio reception has been disabled.

  Yes, that’s right. I can’t have Rhythmbox playing, and Ekiga working, at the same time. I can however have Rhythmbox playing, and make/receive a Skype call just fine. How ironic.

  However, I’m still a big fan of Ekiga. Its not proprietary like Skype. In fact, if more had Ekiga accounts, it would rock (I’m colincharles at ekiga, just like skype). Skype on Linux looks like arse when you’ve used Skype on OS X (or Windows). Not only does it look bad, it actually has so much less features, than the other Skype platforms. Is Skype 1.3 ever going to die, so we can see at least Skype 2 on Linux?

  One of the reasons I registered a Gizmoproject account was so I could make SIP calls and GizmoOut calls via my N770. Seemed viable then, but the service quality is pretty bad (sadly, Skype’s actually better in that respect). Skype mentioned that video calling was coming for Linux on the Nokia N800 - is it? On that tangent, I’m glad I still don’t own one, as people seem to be having failures - reboots and window problems.
