*raises eyebrows* really now? I was under the apparent mistaken impression that via voice was out of the question for redhat 9. does anyone else have experience with this? Because I have had very good exposure to via voice, and personally I have always been satisfied with via voice's quality, understandability, and clarity. If anyone can help me install via voice on redhat 9, I would be more than greatful.

Or even viavoice. now, granted, if you are on Redhat, then I understand viavoice to be a pain to install... matt Campbell did it for me, but he practicly from what I understood, partially had to recompile the source to match the kurnel in redhat 9. these are just a few options though that are free.
