kopete and videochat

I was chatting with a friend on yahoo yesterday and we started to talk about vidochat. Kopete should support it. So I tried to get it working.

But it failed. So I spend some time with mister google.

When trying to start videochat it tells me “Jasper image conversion program not found. jasper is required to render the Yahoo webcam images.”

So you have to go to http://www.ece.uvic.ca/~mdadams/jasper/#download and donload the source code.

Then unzip it.

Go into the directory with the source code

run the configure script

then build the program

and install it

Now the webcam invire for yahoo should work
