Will we get SkypeOut via GTalk?
Caught Why Do Fools Fall in Love. Not my kind of show. I did see Episode 9 of The Ghost Whisperer and there was a Fedora Core (GNOME-based) desktop, and a spreadsheet was open in her antique store. Fedora in the movies!
Now, Skype is still one of the only packages that I use that isn’t available for Linux/PPC. I can use Gizmo’s voip features thru Ekiga, and that works a charm. It would seem that there are quite a lot of users looking for Skype for Linux/PPC. Of course now that Apple has bowed out of the PPC market, I really do wonder if the folk at Skype see more reason to do this; however, keep in mind that a lot of the PPC-based Macs will be around for a long time to come.
The current line run Linux just fine, even if Leopard wouldn’t (i.e. Linux will run perfectly on your G3, Leopard by the looks of it, won’t).
Then I notice that Google and Skype are in a deal. Does this mean that on my 770, I can actually use SkypeOut? Does this mean that I can use Tapioca to do GTalk or Skype via my Linux/PPC box?

[…] Pues bien, acabo de encontrar otra serie que se está emitiendo en estos dÃas en TV en la que aparecen sistemas operativos de código abierto: Ghost Whisperer, o Entre Fantasmas en español. En concreto, me he percatado de ello en el episodio 9 de la primera temporada (Voces). Se puede ver cómo el personaje de Melinda Gordon usa un portátil en el que tiene abierta una hoja de cálculo del paquete OpenOffice, en un entorno de escritorio Gnome; en cuanto a la distribución en un primer momento aposté por una RedHat (por lo que parece ser el icono de un sombrero rojo en la parte superior izquierda de la pantalla), pero googleando por ahà he podido encontrar (cosa lógica, si lo pensamos) que por lo visto es una Fedora Core.
