You can get it from here:
http://code.google.com/p/cj-overlay/sou ... alkplugin/

You will have to create an overlay or add cj-overlay. Also, follow this bug report: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=333579

do you think this new procedure will work for 32 bit? I had previously problems that firefox didn't launch. But I did according to what was posted in the begining of this thread.

The ebuild is there, so maybe it will work. But I don't have an x86 installation to check the ebuild on, so I can't say for sure.

If it doesn't work, then you should probably report in that bug. At least give the ebuild dev some feedback.

I have written the ebuild and it works on my x86 machine. It also works on amd64 in 64bit, but I had no feedback for 32bit on amd64 and there are some problems with chromium (issue 1 of cj-overlay).

Code: Select all

main bobby # emerge -av google-talkplugin

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

It was a typo in the ebuild, just try again.

main bobby # emerge -pv www-plugins/google-talkplugin

Yes, the rpm flag is very experimental, read more about its (dis)advantages here:

Sorry about my anxiety, but is there any requirement this ebuild still have satisfy to be part of the official Portage?

Hello, fbcyborg.

This ebuild seems to be outdated, actually.

People have been discussing about Christoph Junghans overlay version. You can access the files here, or use layman to do so. (The entry in layman for it is cj-overlay)

I don't know much about ebuilds, but if you still would like to try on fixing that ebuild, you can make some research on the ebuild man page.

Thank you very much! It works like a charm!

To all those using Nouveau or other opensource video drivers that are having problems with viewing the video stream from gmail, here's the solution.

make a file

Code: Select all

/opt/google/talkplugin/envvars

with a line:

Code: Select all

LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1

google voice and video?

Where is www-plugins/google-talkplugin-1.5.1.0 ebuild?
