Being that google has enabled video for ubuntu and debian flavors of linux, has anyone tried this on the n900? I know it has voice, but not video. I would try it, but I'm at work and on the big magenta.

You might want to be more precise on what your talking about. For example, http://video.google.com/ is Google Video. Unless you mean Google talk with Video chat.
Rather than wait for a reply for clarification, I'll take a guess and assume you meant GTalk with Video chat. Yes the N900 can do it, the user on the Windows/Linux/Mac side has to install the Google Talk application though.

Google released this addon http://www.google.com/chat/video for Google Talk
http://googletalk.blogspot.com/2010/...-chat-too.html
but only as a x86 .deb
They should have released the source code.
Alien was unable to create a working RPM (it installed with --nodeps but GTalk doesn't notice). Not to mention distros such as Gentoo and IDK other architectures...
I also tried using Pidgin which is supposed to have support but it's just greyed out on my end

Does Google Talk via nimbuzz support Google Talk video?
