I have colleagues who routinely use WebEx on Linux... I might check
with them how or what they did if it's of value to this discussion.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Based on experiences on other Webex calls, the
service is pretty well useless for anyone using a Linux desktop.
<div>On Linux, WebEx only supports Firefox -- not Chrome,
Chromium (what I use) or any of the other available browsers.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>On trying with Firefox, WebEx insisted on a specific Java
Web plugin, one which doesn't exist (and I have Java installed
on my system)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I ended giving up. I have no Apple or Windows systems in my
office. My only workaround was installing the Android app on
my tablet (which appears to work OK over wifi).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Anyway, just be aware that people who are running Linux or
BSD (which is likely a higher proportion within the
Internet-savvy world than amongst the mainstream) *are* going
to have problems.</div>

<div>I tested with <strong

<div><br>
</div>
<div>I used a Windows machine running Windows 7 with the
Adobe Flash installed. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Observations</div>
<div>1. Some challenges logging is as a host and Raquel is
going to check in why it wasn't accepting the user name
and password</div>
<div>2. Host muting of all participants was possible</div>
<div>3. Using the whiteboard a series of files can be
stacked up ie. Aggenda, Slideshow etc.</div>
<div>4. Running video was very slow. This will vary
accordingly</div>
<div>5. Online Polling was not a feature</div>
<div>6 Web accessibility for the disabled needs to be
checked</div>
<div>7. Recorded two short components , unable to check
since they were sent to Raquel not to myself as the
presenter.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I asked Evan to provide his comments running a
Linux system on any issues. My Mac is not working
right now so I can't test it with a Mac.</div>
