Mini HowTo: Logitech Webcam + ekiga + amsn + gizmo + voipbuster

Some days ago i installed ekiga and now i start it all days :)
This is a lil howto use Ekiga to talk with people using other networks like Gizmo and VoIpBuster and of course the ekiga network .

First of course you need to isntall Ekiga :

# emerge ekiga

And install the driver for your cam, my cam is a logitech so first you need a kernel with v4l (video for linux) enable and:

# emerge media-video/usb-pwc-re

Now when you plug your webcam you will see how the cam is assigend to /dev/video0. In ekiga you need to select the V4L or V4L2 driver to use it. It will work w/o problems in amsn too.

So how to talk with other networs? is easy just add new accounts:

* Gizmo:
Acc. Name: Gizmo
Register: proxy01.sipphone.com:5060
User: 123456789 (your SIP number assigned to your gizmo user)
Pass: yourpass

Auth. User: 123456789 (your SIP number again)
Reign/Domain: proxy01.sipphone.com
Time: 3600

Now to call any Gizmo user just use:

SipNumberOfYourFriend@proxy01.sipphone.com:5060

* Voipbuster:
Acc. Name: Voipbuster
Register: sip1.voipbuster.com
User: YourVoipbusterUser
Pass: yourpass Auth. User: YourVoipBusterAgain
Reign/Domain: voipbuster.com
Time: 3600

Now to call any Phone just use:

InternationalPhoneNumber@sip1.voipbuster.com

Lonely planet andalucia

The Lonely planet guides really offend me… They talk about my region and city using lies…. some example:

http://www.lonelyplanet.es/FichaDestino.aspx?IdCategoria=44

This is the worst guide write ever… talking about place fo the world with more the 3000 years of history.. only like an example, Seville was the cultural and biz capital of the world in the XVI century, and in other moment of the history was the most important city of the world and the capital of the 2 bigger religions in the world, 2 f the most important Roman emperor were born in Seville.
