Ah, I should have mentioned this. I am specifically looking for something that
is *not* Skype, because (a) Skype has no ALSA support and very bad OSS support,
making it a chore to use, and (b) it cannot be installed alongside KDE 3.4,
which I plan to dist-upgrade to soon (I'm holding back until amarok is
installable).
