[plug] Software VOIP clients?

[Andrew Furey]

Hi all,

What clients do people use for software-based VOIP telephony?

At present my only real criteria is that it actually works (with
asterisk, but it looks like most everything should). I've tried all
sorts of clients (kphone, linphone, ohphone, minisip, siphon, cornfed,
lipz24...) without luck. The closest I've gotten is with kphone, which
connects to asterisk and dials fine, but once the call is connected it
only lasts for ~5 seconds before segfaulting :(

I'd prefer not to use a Windows client in my case, although we
probably will need one for another staff member (along with an OSX
client, although X-lite looks like it will do the job once we get it
dialling properly).

Thanks in advance
Andrew
