sjphone works in BL2 with glibc 2.2.5 if you upgrade to Slackware 
8.1 libX11.so.6.2 (from SW71 6.1).  SW81 is xfree 4.2, and SW71 xfree 
3.3.6.

mplayer plugin additionally needed a later libXext and/or libICE.
Since firefox won't work with SW81 glibc, users of firefox with plugins 
should upgrade to SW11 X libraries.

VOIP providers claim you need 300MHz and 128MB RAM to use a softphone. 
sjphone uses about 3MB RAM offline and might work on a 100MHz laptop with 
16MB RAM and BL2.  I don't know how to upgrade BL3 to libX11.so.6.2 since 
it has libc5 based libX11.

I probably need to upgrade binutils to compile mplayer (it contains linker 
'as') along with the full glibc developers' package.
