Mumble is a free and open-source application used for real-time voice chat. In this tutorial, we'll learn how to install Mumble on OpenBSD, an open-source operating system.
Before installing Mumble, we need to update the OpenBSD system to make sure we have the latest software packages. To update the system, open a terminal and run the following command:
sudo pkg_add -u
This command will update all installed software packages on the system.
Once the system is updated, we can now install Mumble. To install Mumble, we can use the pkg_add command as follows:
sudo pkg_add mumble
This command will download and install Mumble and all its dependencies.
Now that Mumble is installed, we need to configure it. This can be done by running the Mumble client using the following command:
mumble
This command will start the Mumble client interface.
Next, we need to configure our audio settings. From the Mumble client interface, click on the “Configure” button and select “Settings.”
Under the “Audio Input” tab, make sure that the correct input device is selected. Then, under the “Audio Output” tab, make sure that the correct output device is selected.
Once you have configured your audio settings, you can connect to a server by clicking on the “Server” button and selecting “Connect.”
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Mumble on OpenBSD and configured it to use your audio settings. You can now use Mumble to connect to voice chat servers and communicate with others in real-time.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
