I'll be persisting with Empathy despite all these warts, due to the excellent call quality. If you look elsewhere on the forums, you'll find that although everything works, this machine doesn't play nice with Ubuntu in a ACPI way, due to a buggy DSDT implementation in the BIOS and the requirement to compile a custom kernel with Toshiba optimisations included (which I haven't done yet). The hardware platform, by the way, was a Toshiba Tecra M11-130. It's a real shame, as this clunkiness overlies a very good quality SIP implementation, and I have nothing but praise for the call clarity. Then type the phone number longhand or with one hand while the other is accessing your contacts list on your mobile phone.

You're not done yet, now go to the 'Accounts' dropdown, and select your SIP account. Go to 'Chat' menu on the Contact List window, select 'New Call'.

Select 'chat' (I usually minimise or close the Contacts List). Can't this be a simple click on the alert window, which fades/blurs if any attempt is made to interact with it?īetter still is making a call. Well, I've already seen who's calling, via the on-screen alert window. A box appears asking whether to accept or reject the call. Both Linphone versions were installed in a virtual machine environment and started in auto-answer mode, to provide the stateful fuzzer with an opportunity. How about answering a call go to top menu bar, click the 'Chat' envelope, pull down to the incoming call in the green envelope. With only a few days experience, gripes with Empathy SIP are abundant. The Empathy SIP client seems quite robust so far, and survives suspend/resume cycles much better than the X-Lite softfone on a WinXP machine I used to use - this had to be restarted at each resume, even though it appeared to be logged in.

Previously I had been selecting and copy/pasting the password from a browser opened onto my Sipgate account, this somehow copies some whitespace at the beginning or end which messes up the password field. I couldn't get the account to authenticate at first, and it only worked when I typed the Sipgate password manually into the Empathy password field. There's a minor 'gotcha' with the Sipgate password. Then the settings which worked for me were:ĭiscover the STUN server automatically: unchecked

If you would like to install Zoiper without the need for user interaction. As a belt and braces measure, I closed empathy after installing sofia-sip and killed the telepathy processes before restarting Empathy, but it may not be necessary to do this (?) Click the key combination CTRL + L (on Ubuntu) to select the current working.

Code: sudo apt-get install telepathy-sofiasipbefore SIP appears as an option in the 'Edit' > 'Accounts' > 'Add.' dropdown 'Protocol' list.
