Hello Linux Geeksters. As you may know, Mumble is a voice chat program used by gamers. The Mumble client has support for the most popular 3D applications. In order to be able to talk with your friends, you also need to install the server (mumble-server package).
The latest version available is Mumble 1.2.6, which has been recently released, coming with a few fixes only.
In this article I will show you how to install Mumble 1.2.6 on on Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr, Ubuntu 13.10 Saucy Salamander, Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin, Linux Mint 17 Qiana, Linux Mint 16 Petra, Linux Mint 13 Maya, Pinguy OS 14.04, Pinguy OS 12.04, Elementary OS 0.3 Isis and Elementary OS 0.2 Luna.
