First off is the speed of internet connection. Currently we're on a 56k dialup
<cringe> yuk! </cringe> If you're in the states, ADSL and Cable are the best options as far as price/performance. Even a dual-channel ISDN (128k) provides mediochre bandwidth and would be pretty expensive compared to cable. Even a fractional T1 would make more sense cost-wise if this is to be a daily, extended operation.
Second - since the other users are currently using Windows as their OS of 'choice' ;-) they will probably end up using MS NetMeeting for the actual videoconferencing.
I think there are a couple of projects. Don't recall what they're called :(.
Number three (I almost forgot this one) - what sort of hardware would you suggest for this?
Huappage WinTV PCI capture cards, preferably with a CCD with composite output (~$150 US per-seat). PPA and USB cameras have shady support right now, with USB being the lesser of the two evils (higher bandwidth=better image quality). The kicker with USB devices is the lack of support at the kernel issue. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
