Just tried it out. On FreeBSD I get a blank grey
screen. I could
only get something more on a Microsoft box, not quite what I'd want to
do. Is there some trick?
* Install /usr/ports/net-im/jitsi. (Comment out the BROKEN line from the
Makefile and "make install" should work as usual; the source can actually
be fetched just fine...)
In fact, the package was indeed unfetchable, but the ports collection
had a cached version, which is what you got. But now I've brought it
up to date (only 2 years old rather than 4).
* kldload cuse
* Run firefox and surf to that URL.
I haven't found that necessary. In fact, installing jitsi doesn't
seem to be necessary. All you need is a more recent browser than the
antiques I was running.
