Description Sven Arvidsson 2007-03-17 15:54:44 UTC 
This bug was reported to the Debian BTS.
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=412604

"When I get an incoming call and my speakers are off, I cannot tell if 
someone is trying to call me.  The program window will tell me someone 
is trying to call, but only if it is in the same workspace as the one I 
am using.

Perhaps setting the window as "urgent" (window flashes in the panel) or 
doing something else that will get my attention when I have an incoming call 
will be helpful."

But that won't help if the user shut his monitor off...

I checked it and it sets the URGENT hint. But it doesn't work for me (and also not for you, it seems). I'll investigate.

Comment 3 Jan Schampera 2007-03-19 21:26:52 UTC 
It's kind of fixed in HEAD.

Ekiga now sets the URGENT hint on the main-window (!) when the dialog pops up, and re-sets it, when the main-window gets the focus (switching to it and clicking the dialog).

Closing, but please report back.
