Video Conferencing

Does anyone have any experience with video conferencing on linux? I've been using skype for a while now, but it only allows for one on one video chats, I'm looking for something that allows 3 or more people to conference by video. I've been trying to get ekiga working but havnt had much luck with that either. Something that could work with either ichat or gtalk would be preferable.

Re: Video Conferencing

You could give a look at qnext http://www.qnext.com/

It's a free download.
I was also looking for videoconference under linux and tried this. It's multiplatform and supports lots of protocols. I've been able to use it but it didn't work very well, I have a poor quality webcam and and rather slow internet connection. I didn't like this software, erased it !

Maybe you will have a better experience.

I don't know if VLVC made into mainline VLC or not, but it looks pretty interesting:
