General :: Getting Static With No Picture Or Audible Voice In Skype Calls

Mar 10, 2010

I have an ASUS eec901 Linux version with Jolicloud installed. When I dial Skype contacts I can hear and see them but THEY just get static with no picture or audible voice. Skype informs me that I must change my settings from Pulse audio to ALSA using a program called pavucontrol. I must delete Pulse audio, but although i have tried I can see no way to do this.Pavu control does not seem to install either.

Fedora :: Getting Skype To Work On 14 - No "yum Install Skype---" Command

Dec 15, 2010

I have downloaded & installed the skype beta release for linux (now ancient?) on my newly build fedora 14 (64) box.

Under fedora 12, I made this work after several hours of mucking around by installing old libraries for 32 bit code in /lib and /usr/lib - as I got an error, I found the library and put it in place. This was painful and the WRONG way to do things - I should have been using yum!

It remains a shame that the Skype release for Linux is so old, but that is life.

Can anyone list the libraries needed (prefer yum names if possible) to make this work?

I can do this again the hard way and list the results for others (should have saved for myself, but I never dreamed that a newer Skype release would take so long) , but I am sure many folks have this working already. I am surprised there is no "yum install skype---" command.

Ubuntu :: Emulate Windows Version Of Skype?

Nov 17, 2010

I need to have a skype version which supports conference call. The linux version only supports if i call and not if someone call me, (at least as far as i know.)
And as the windows version of skype does not work in wine, i have to find another solution.
I heard Cedega Emulates? (does it only support games?)

I guess i can use virtual box and have skype in that but, wouldn't it be really slow to start skype then? (First start windows from virtualbox then start skype?

Fedora Networking :: Get KVM Static IP Bridging To Work On F10 Install?

I'm trying to get KVM static IP bridging to work on my Fedora 10 install. I've looked at the related posts on this subject and tried some of the suggestions without full success. I've used the virt-manager to create 2 Windows XP guests on the host (all on the same machine).I need to use static IP addressing on the 2 guests as well as the host.I need the guest VMs and host to be able to see each other as well as connect to the outside world. Using the script below I found in an earlier post, I get network connectivity with the 2 guest VMs but the host can't get out at all.

Fedora :: Install Skype From Repository

Sep 5, 2009

Here is the new version that works with Fedora 13. It installs the latest Skype from the Skype repository (apparently the Skype repo was outdated in the past, but now it contains the same version as on the Skype website). First, create the skype.repo file in the zq3tf/etc/yum.repos.d directory:

[Code]....

Third, one may have to install a few libraries that Skype needs. If you're interested, you can find out more about these libraries with ldd /usr/share/skype and with yum provides *..., but this is not required for installation. All you need to do is (got this from Krellan's post):

Red Hat / Fedora :: How To Install Skype (Not Inside Repository)

May 25, 2011

I'm new to Linux. I've just installed Fedora and I'm wondering how to install Skype since it is not inside the repository. I use a 64bit system. I've seen that it is possible to download it from Skype home page. On some websites I've read to download the dynamic package, not the one for Linux, I did it, it is a compressed file, I've uncompressed it but now I don't know how to go on.

The readme file says to copy the bynary into usr/bin (is the binary the file called skype with no extension) and to install the folders avatars, icons... into usr/shared/skype. I've pasted the skype file into the usr/bin folder, but how do I install the folders, I've tried to copy them in the position, but it doesn't work? What about the files skype.conf and skype.desktop, what do I have to do with them? If this is not the correct way to install Skype, what should I do?

Fedora X86/64bit :: Skype Doesn't Install Dependencies On 12 X86_64

Jan 17, 2010

I'm trying to get skype to work on my new system. It seems to install, but trying to run it I get an error message naming a missing dependency. Searching for this with yum whatprovides and installing the result worked in one case, but for the next one, yum install <package containing missing item> returns a few errors of the form:

package <name-version>.fc12.x86_64 (which is newer than <package-version>.fc12.i686) is already installed Is there any way around this? I'd like to get skype working, but am having no luck at the moment. I'd prefer not to remove the .x86_64 packages if I can avoid it in case that breaks something else.
