Fring N900 version on ubuntu?
 
Would it be possible to install Fring N900 version on ubuntu?
Because fring doesnt support atm "linux".

Could some one make me a guide for it if its possible.
I need it because of its voice call ability over msn, no other client supports it.

If you're talking about a normal PC running Ubuntu then the answer is no.

But, I thought Ekiga supports MSN voice calls. You should check it to see.

Thanks i will :)

So i did try it
This is ekigas answer.
Ekiga is not compatible with Skype or MSN and will never be compatible for direct phone calls as long as their protocols stay proprietary. We do not think using closed protocols for communications is a good thing.

So there is no way to get msn voice calls working on linux?
Or has some one trick in a sleeve?

Ain't gonna happen. MS does not like competition. Linux does not like Microsoft.
