Always very very few people in SL Voice and very few forums about it.

Does the Voice Beta work on your system ???



(NOT looking for opinions about voice, just whether or not it works on your system)

It works very well for me. I wish I could say the same thing about Windlight. I just do not want to open up the box for a new vid card right now.

I really need to get a headset and microphone before I use voice regularly, since listening to me talk on my laptop's built in microphone was painful for everyone involved. However, voice itself worked extremely well - far better than my expectations, in fact.

Works good for me too. The newest version 1.17.0 (110) seems real stable.
What kind of problems are you experiencing?

Its not working for me :( . I've got windows XP and I've tried everything to get it to work but no luck :/. It was working for a few days but then went dead for no apparent reason.

Nope. Every time I try to download it, I get "Linux client installer not available."

The beta doesn't have voice anymore, you have to get the first look and go on the main grid.

Sorry, headset obviously (which is good). Was too lazy to look around for myself, despite offers on headsets were on the frontpage. :D

I'm able to get on with the new beta, and voice appears to work. No one's around to talk to though.

i've noticed with the beta and first look viewers, after you download/install the new version it wont let me log in unless I have cleared cache.
