That's kind of what I meant. There was once a forum thread that everyone was adding their sip id to, but I don't remember where it was at. That's more what I was looking for.

Everyone can add me to their buddy list:

Latest version, new code paradigm, please update and test

Hello
@ Downloaded the new one. Looks nice, will test asap.
Called my Wife ( on her Gizmo in Windows) and it worked fine.

@ Feature / Bug ??
The Buddy status notifications. Seems like a great feature, OK. But...earlier I went off and left psip running by accident, (sorry if I didnt answer LOL). When I returned, I had
like 100 notifications on my desktop!!!! Took a few minutes clicking to close them all..
Also, I occasionally get one that reads " D.11" but thats all???? Also, about half the time they dont say the status. Mine just say " Crusty_Lobster `s status is ?" ..ect...

@ Nice Buttons!!!!

Thanks Jay
I think we are very near to a breakthrough with PSIP

Yesterday HairyWill was very near to breakdown
- said his head was ready to explode . . .
I recommended a paper bag over the head to protect the wallpaper

More PSIP users required

I downloaded the latest 0.9.9 and tested this out on a fresh frugal Puppy Dingo. I tried checking voice mail messages, it started one message and then went blank. After this, I tried calling Lobster (Jason) and there was no tone at all. Changing the availability status did not work either.Is this the same problem mentioned already?

Maybe I should try out 0.9.8 next to see if this works well. Saw Will's comment on Puppylinux.org that 0.9.8 is better than 0.9.9.

Been doing some things on the windows side of things so I haven't been able to download the new version. I'll do that in a minute.

EDIT: Correction. I've done that. Seems to work fine for me. I don't' see any massive change in CPU usage with the new version over the old. Yes, I've made a call on it to check the voice mail that our crustacean friend left. Sound quality is still just as good as it was before. If you want any detailed information about my computer, you can click the CPUz Validation bar in my signature.

Hello

@Lobster,
Got your voicemails, so here are my system stats..
Compaq Evo N610c... Pentium 4...1.8ghz 768 mb ram, ATI mobility 7500, 60 gig HD,

@Eric has vm`d me about having a time/cpu tested conversation. What is a good CPU monitor for
Dingo? Conkey?

Hi Jay, thanks guys
Open a console, type 'top'.

Cool, Thanks...

Cpu usage for psip...3.2%
Firefox...11%
Good job ...

@ Lobster, I checked, and I am me, in my configuration...

@ Just had a conversation with David "down under" and he was clear as a bell. However, he said I was breaking up, but it may be my mike.....

'John Doe' reporting in...

1-Success with 0.9.9; I signed up, logged on and checked my voice main, heard some news options, and even started a conference call at one point. A mic is around somewhere but I'll have to dig it up and get it working before I try speaking.

2-One small note.

After having entered a completely incorrect buddy in the adduser dialog, everything bombs. (even on X restart, etc...)

See following (last line is probably most important):

Code: Select all

# psip
# killing pjsua process 5936
./psip-pjsua-controller: line 15: kill: (5936) - No such process

 00:40:38.228    pjsua_app.c Error: invalid URL 'nouser' in --add-buddy option

perhaps some type of regex validation can be added to that dialog?

I tested the three following entry types for buddy in the config file and only the first did the aforementioned behaviour:

--add-buddy nouser

--add-buddy sip:puppy_jd@proxy01.sipphone.com

--add-buddy sip:nouser

Perhaps I tried them all with = for spaces also but can't remember for sure.

cheers!

Low down and dirty users required:

In order to test if the new pjsua part of PSIP is working we need command line users:

go to user/local/psip
open a terminal from that directory and
type at the console

Code: Select all

./pjsua-i686-pc-linux-gnu --config-file=pjsua.cfg.default

You may also find your cfg file in /root/.psip
in which case

Code: Select all

./pjsua-i686-pc-linux-gnu --config-file=/root/.psip/pjsua.cfg

should work with your settings

report back how it works

the console commands appear every time you press enter

Still a no go on 3.01, Thinkpad T22 full hd install. I have been comparing files between 0.7 which runs very well on this installation and 0.99 to see if I can find where the problem is. I understand that this is a (New) app but I would like to see a version that runs on older Pups.
I believe it must have been when it was recompiled?

Hopefully I will have a machine with Dingo soon and can be of more help.

@peppy
Are you able to use the included version of pjsua from the commandline?

I had a 40 minute conversation with tom today, no problems. It also helped to clean out my head. We both have static public IP addresses and I have a strong suspicion that dynamic public ip addresses may be the common factor in some peoples dropped calls. To solve this it may help if you include the following line in your config file
--use-ice

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-ICE
http://www.jdrosen.net/papers/draft-ros ... ce-00.html

also as CEL said
specify gizmo as your stun server
--stun-srv=stun01.sipphone.com

fingers crossed

Working on adding to my userbar animations and was going to add a PSIP User frame to it, but I was hoping to use a graphic for it kind of like the ones for XP and Puppy Linux. Is there an actual logo image for PSIP yet? If not, I'll just use this one from the Wiki page:

Updated to the 0.9.10 Debug release. Opening with the pjsua_custom_01-0.9.0 will load PSIP, but I get no audio, even after changing the settings as per the VOIP thread. I can't load PSIP with the pjsua_standard-0.9.0 version. Ideas? Suggestions?

EDIT: The Standard one started working?

Posted: **Sat 12 Jul 2008, 06:08**

restart x
use the standard version

makes sure you are using Puppy 4 Dingo
start Dingo with 'puppy pfix=ram' if you have a lot of modifications

I had the Macpup add on and this caused some inability to read the buddy list - so I removed it.

Use the latest version
http://tmxxine.com/sip/psip-0.9.11.pet

NEW

More help messages on the pull down menu
More pop dialogues
Text messages should work for everyone.
The gui now runs independently of pjsua, ie if you close the gui pjsua will be left running. if you want to stop pjsua then there is an entry under phone on the pull down menu.

Lobster, that works great. I got it installed and it works like a charm . I had some small problem getting it to install at first, but after a quick X restart, it went like a charm. I would like to suggest that anyone else installing it save the .pet to your computer and close all programs prior to installing the .pet. Reason being that when I attempted to install it with Pidgin and FF3 running, X locked up on me and I had to do a hard restart to get it back up and running. (I hate doing that too... ) Other than that, the sound quality is top notch on my end. No problems getting it to run once it installs either. If I have any issues, I'll let you know.

Posted: **Tue 15 Jul 2008, 13:35**

After much error trapping here is psip-0.9.12

I have replaced the standard portaudio in the pjsua build with those from pjproject-0.8.0 which has stopped the audio cut-outs that lobster and smokey were experiencing.

If you want it to, the application should run nicely in the background, just popping up windows when you get calls, IMs or status change messages (these should probably be optional).

The debug option is now able to display the call quality which includes call time and also total MB transmitted.

I have cranked down the quality to 4 in the included config file which means it will probably work on dialup. If both ends of your calls are always broadband and your cpu is not on its last legs this can be set as high as 10.

The crash reporter now includes your config file minus the password. It also uses tar.gz instead of tgz so that the logs will work with forum PMs and the log should be named with your username, to make it easier for me to keep track of them.

Have fun.

for those that know anything about ALSA and OSS in puppy, here is the email from Benny about portaudio.

That's strange indeed. But it's good to know that the problem doesn't seem
to come from pjsip.

Re: PA, one of the thing that changed between 0.8 to 0.9 is (IIRC) PA
changed the default sound backend in Linux from OSS to ALSA (so if both are
present, ALSA will be used unless pjsua is configured to use other device
ID). That might be the reason.
