Thanks for the info.  I wouldn't be too hard on Gentoo though, its 100%
unusable for those who configure it wrong ;)  Its only a matter of
adding a USE flag for the Opal ebuild.  Which can be done like so (for
those interested):
echo "net-libs/opal debug" >>/etc/portage/package.use

Now that I got some useful debug output, I found a thread which sounds
like the exact same issue.  I am also getting a massive amount of
messages like:
"RTP	STUN could not create socket pair"

The thread for reference:
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnomemeeting-devel-list/2006-March/msg00004.html

So I think its a problem with the NAT router I'm using and the STUN
implementation.  I'll try setting a different RTP port range using
gconf, like one reply to that thread suggests.

For reference, the router is a D-Link DI-824VUP+ and I'm connecting to
it wirelessly with my laptop.

Thanks for all the replies.  Very helpful.
