Are you using Cisco Skinny or H.323?

I have not used this http://www.iptel.org/products/bonephone/, but it is
GPL.  It utilizes RAT from the UCL for audio data processing and transport.
It uses the NIST-SIP protocol stack for signaling.

KPhone http://www.iptel.org/products/kphone/ (supports IPv6 and is KDE
based)

Not released yet SJphone for Linux or FreeBSD
http://www.sjlabs.com/products/sjp-x.html, not sure if will be Q4 vaporware
or not.

If you are stuck using Windows http://www.xten.com/ is not a bad client
since it is free.

These open source projects might be of interest to you:
http://www.asterisk.org (supports skinny and sip)
http://www.iptel.org

I need to find out if theres a project that allows me to run Cisco IP 
Phone

Their software download only support Winblows and our company moved to 
Soft Phone (and these suck the big one).

So now I have to run windows to use the damn phone, worse if the screen 
saver is engaged with password protection you cannot answer the damn thing 
before loggin in. 

And it crashes all the time on windows 2000 or suddenly disconnects and 
gets all goofy thus requiring a system REBOOT to use the stupid phone.

We hate this system but management doesnt care as they get actual 'hard 
phones'. Real phones tied into the ip phone system and not the crap us 
peons have to use.

So I am wondering if someone knows how to get their softphone code working 
in Fedora. Maybe i can at least get more stability.

thanks,

Greg
