Hello,
I got some questions about collaboration software and tools.
At my workplace we want to work at different physical locations, but still want to talk together, view the screen of each other and use webcams. The OS's at use are Ubuntu and Win XP
I thought that
using Skype for voice, works fine on Linux and great on Windows
VNC for remote viewing of screens on Ubuntu
Windows Remote Desktop for viewing Windows XP from Ubuntu
Ekiga [Ubuntu] + netmeeting [WinXP] for webcam
I thought about using www.stickam.com for voice, chat and video, but it does not work that well. The lag is almost 15 sec... :(
I also thought about using Ventrilo http://www.ventrilo.com/ for voice, but the Linux client is still in development :(
Edit: TeamSpeak2 looks promising
Are there other tools that I should look into?
Any ideas to make this setup work better?
Best Regads,
