Twinkle is a soft phone for your voice over IP and instant messaging communcations using the SIP protocol. You can use it for direct IP phone to IP phone communication or in a network using a SIP proxy to route your calls.
Some of the features offered are call waiting, call hold, 3-way conference call, call transfer, and call reject. It supports STUN or a statically configured public IP address for NAT traversal. When using STUN, it will send keep-alive packets to keep NAT bindings alive. It supports ZRTP for secure voice communication.

Problem: the first call is fine, audio works. After the first call though I often have to do a full reboot for audio to work. Otherwise, Twinkle will just go completely silent. Looking at Pulseaudio it does not recognise any outgoing audio -or in fact any incoming audio either.
Any news on Twinkle for KDE4 by any chance?

"padsp twinkle"
and set sound/audio ouput in Twinkle to /dev/dsp
Other applications like Amarok may block Twinkle. So close them if you want to phone somebody.

Reason why it stopped working after the first call: I had NAT not needed. I changed that to the static IP address, and after that there were no more audio problems......

Twinkle is by far the best softphone around, and it would be really great to have a KDE4 version.

checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.3) (library qt-mt) not found. Please check your installation!
For more details about this problem, look at the end of config.log.
Make sure that you have compiled Qt with thread support!
I have tried ./configure --disable-qt-check, but it still makes the test (same message) !
Of course, libqt-mt is installed:
/usr/lib/libqt-mt.so.3
/usr/lib/libqt-mt.so.3.3.6
/usr/lib/libqt-mt.so.3.3
/usr/share/qt3/lib/libqt-mt.so.3
/usr/share/qt3/lib/libqt-mt.so.3.3
So, no solution for the moment.

I have found the problem (sorry to report this so late): it was a problem with commoncpp2, after the make install, I have made a ldconfig and it worked.
It was hard to compile, but it is a pleasure to use :-)

I installed, run the configuration part, then it crashed. Now everytime I try and run it I get a segfault message.
Tips?

Twinkle is a very nice app., but it is on my kubuntu very unstable, like the last version ( 0.62 ? ). I had suddenly crashes, without using the softphone, only in standby. I would appreciate a more stable version, because I think you did a great work!
