wine is the solution

there isnt one

there is a questionably legal hacked together client in the works though: http://www.ventinux.net

not sure if it'll ever get finished but I'm going to monitor progress from afar... for now I'm using wine (with ALSA) - with direct sound enabled I can hear multiple people talking at the same time so its not that bad

Its doable, but not worth it, sounds shit, cant push to talk, use a native linux voip client (mumble, ts).

mumble has a native client for linux, if ur using ubuntu, go appplications>add/remove software, and find it. Its 3rd party.

" Linux - In development " for 2 years now (or more).
wine isnt solution, because the ventrilo window have to be active or you cant talk.

Imo there is not any good solution as far as I know.

Voice activation... but even then, the sound is bad, unless u configure wine properly, and whens hes here asking such questions we can assume he doesnt even know how to configure wine :D

Linux + Ventrilo = no love what so ever </3
Windows + Ventrilo = Lots of love <3

but windows overall just = </3

I'd use win again if I had as much freedom on is as I do in nix, simple as that.

Once tried linux, some things i enjoyed, some things .... well, they were complicated. Too much brainfuck to get work properly.
