Sorry, I should have mentioned that text chat works fine in kopete, 
voice chat does not. When either I or the other party initiates a voice 
connection, it tries, and what I say gets played back on my end rather 
broken up but never makes it to the other end. Then the voice session 
terminates on its own. File transfers don't work either and, from what 
I've read on jingle, voice chats and file transfers use the same technology.

Thanks,
Micah
