isight , ichat and clinet for linux
 

Hi, I have a mac at home with isight and ichat . I need to connect via from my fc4 linux box. What client would people recommend? I think my only option is to move to ivist or squidcam instead of ichat?

thanks

You're trying to do webcams in Linux...
I attempted that in my eariler years, and wasn't
successful, so I wish you the best of luck.

From a chat (i.e. text) point of view, iChat uses AOL's
messenger AIM for it.

Both Kopete and GAIM should be able to log you into
your account, or to crate a new one.

I was in the same situation with my girlfriend,
and we discovered that iChat can ONLY SHARE
WEBCAM WITH OTHER MACS.

This was not good news... I think the closest we
got was Yahoo.

Moving away from iChat is neccessary I think.

Sorry if this isn't very useful,

thanks. yes, i am looking to use the isight webcam. I'm pretty 100% sure now that I have to move away from ichat to use it cross platform.
I'm going to have to use ivisit or squidcam

alright, let me know what you find and how it goes
