Hello, Yes, messaging was perfectly fine. Since my last e-mail I tested the iSight camera on my MacBook 2008 laptop and though it can be attached to /dev/video0, Hangouts fails to identify it. Might be a permission issue, since on GNU/Linux /dev/video0 is the Hangouts' camera default. Similarly, there is no sound at all. Not sure what Hangouts uses for handling sound. I hope not pulseaudio... The app itself works, which is good. Handling peripherals is somewhat problematic.
