Comment(by carrano):

 Replying to [ticket:7511 joe]:
 > 9-laptops testbed (build 708), mesh collaboration "under the tree".

 > An attempt to record a video and transfer it to collaborating machines
 kills the system, requiring a reboot to resume operations. The part of the
 video file is indeed tranferred (a blurred image appears on several XOs
 before those machines become dead).

 > Seems as the video activities in the collaboration environment (not in
 the individual machine) are impossible.

 Apparently this activity is supposed to run on joyride (since it needs a
 newer version of telepathy-glib). Can you give the steps that you use to
 install it on 708?

 Would you also please clarify what makes you feel that this is a network
 problem and not an application crash?
