I have tried How do I receive incoming Google Voice calls using Empathy? and How do I set up SIP voice calling in Empathy?, but nothing works on 13.04.

I don't want to store my login information on another site, so this solution is out.

How can I accept incoming Google Voice phone calls with an Ubuntu app on 13.04? I'm currently using Empathy but will gladly use anything that prevents having to use a browser.

You can do audio/video call for XMPP procotol, I am not aware of what google voice uses but surely is not XMPP.

I also have notice since the google+ stuff and gtak becoming hangouts I can no longer make phone/video calls to my google contacts with Pidgin.

  • Hmmm, thank-you! Do you know of another service that provides a free phone number? I'm 100% committed to Ubuntu now, so if someone doesn't respect linux, I quickly seek alternatives. Sad goog wants to go this way. :(

  • Ekiga supports SIP if that helps

  • I believe empathy also supports SIP, haven't used it in a while.
