Ubuntu Multimedia :: How To Install Skype From Medibuntu

Apr 2, 2010

I had my Logitech Webcam/mic working perfectly, in 8.10, but when I upgraded to 9.10, the video stopped working. The camera works in lots of other software,Cheese to luvcview to testing with gstreamer-properties But Skype's video crashes when I try to use the video camera. Usually a segmentation fault.

Lots of other threads here suggest that using the version of skpye packages in medibuntu is the solution. So I added medibuntu to my /etc/apt/sources.list, reloaded to get the latest directories. I don't see any "skype" to install, either in Synaptics or in the shell with apt-get Output from apt-cache search is

# apt-cache search skype
skytools - Database management tools from Skype to PostgreSQL
python-skype - Skype API wrapper for Python
skysentials - extra functionalities for Linux Skype client
skype-mid - Skype for MIDs

p.s. any one have clues as to why this broke going from 9.04 to 9.10?

Ubuntu :: When Add Medibuntu To 10.04, Isn't There Supposed To Be A "medibuntu" Sub-category On The Left Side?

May 8, 2010

When you add medibuntu to 10.04, isn't there supposed to be a "medibuntu" sub-category on the left side? I installed the medibuntu repo expecting that I'd find google earth in there. But when I added it, I didn't see it listed there - even after rebooting.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Audio In 10.04 - Can't Run Medibuntu?

May 5, 2010

I upgraded a machine from 9.10 in the hopes that 10.04 will have fixed the audio problems that were present in the 9.10 installation -- the problem being that I have no audio. When I check the pulseaudio volume meter, it shows audio present in both channels. I've not been able to find anything where a mute button is checked.

Thinking it might be a codec, I tried to reinstall Medibuntu. I get the error message: unable to lock /var/lib/dpkg. Is another process using it. I've done a "ps -ef" looking for a process that might be causing problems, but no luck. I'm using an Intel ICH5 audio board -- if I'm reading everything correctly.

Sorry for the multiple headings, but I thought they might be inter-related. What I'd like: audio playback from an on-line source (Hulu.com). Ideas on how to make that happen will If medibuntu isn't part of the problem, just let that slide by, and I'll post a separate help "request" later.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: 9.04 - Medibuntu Packages For Jaunty

Nov 30, 2010

Unfortunately, I am stuck running jaunty -- because my company still requires this as our standard OS for our software. I have a computer with a fresh install of 9.04 but of course none of the medibuntu packages. Why did they take down jaunty from the medibuntu repository! Where I can get these packages now? (w32codecs, etc.)

Ubuntu Installation :: Install Medibuntu Repository From Command Line

Apr 7, 2011

I recently discovered the medibuntu repository and wanted to add the repository to synaptic. I copied and pasted the code from this: [URL] web page on medibuntu.org's website.

The attachment shows exactly what the terminal spit out after running this command (and the command that was run - of course). What I am wondering about is the last six lines - which seem to indicate that, at a minumum, getting some key was not successful. I'm not sure how important this is; but, since I don't actually have anything I need to install from this repository right now, I wanted to be sure I'm squared away for when a time may come in the future.

After running the command I did the following to try and determine the status:

I went into synaptic > settings > repositories and looked under two of the tabs to see what was there:

The tab, "Other Sortware" Lists two entries at the bottom that stood out to me. They are:

Medibuntu - Ubuntu 11.04 "natty narwhal" (http:// packages.medibuntu.org/natty free non free) which was checked.

And:

Medibuntu (Source) - Ubuntu 11.04 "natty narwhal" (http:// packages.medibuntu.org/natty free non free) (Source Code) which was not checked.

The tab, "Authentication" lists a total of three entries. Their descriptions are:

Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key

Ubuntu CD Image Automatic Signing Key

And:

Ubuntu Extras Archive Automatic Signing Key

None of those (under this Authentication tab) strike me as having anything to do with medibuntu (could be wrong though - just not sure).

Finally, I did a search in synaptic for a library I think should be available through medibuntu, "libdvdcss." I was presented with a list of eight items, none of them matching libdvdcss by title. The closest match by title and description that I could identify was, "libdvdread4" This I did as a sort of test to see if I might be accessing that repository.

Ubuntu :: Bluetooth And Skype \ Make A Call Using These Headphones With Skype, Can Speak For Say 10 Seconds And Then The Headset Disconnects Completely From The System?

Aug 12, 2010

I recently bought a IOgear USB bluetooth adapter and a Sony DRBT101/BLK bluetooth headphones to use with my computer.Whenever I try to make a call using these headphones with skype, I can speak for say 10 seconds and then the headset disconnects completely from the system. I then have to reconnect the headset by switching it off and on. I do not have this problem listening to music using A2DP. It works fine with my mobile phone.When I change the profile to Telephony Duplex (HSP/HFP), it shows up as hands free, I thought it should be headset in blueman manager. My friend uses Plantronics headset with is Dell laptop with built in bluetooth and he says his comes up as headset not hands free. Could this be causing the problem?

Jun 9, 2011

I just recently purchased a 3g dongle for my netbook. Everything seems to be working fine until I discovered this strange problem. I cant seem to text via skype, it doesnt go through. I testet the skype test call service and voice works fine, audio and mic. I have tried to google and search forums but no luck. I have before used skype on my netbook with my cellphone as a hot spot and it worked without problem but it doesnt have the same provider - different sim cards in phone and dongle.

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 :: 10.10 - Where To Get Skype?

Oct 18, 2010

During the install of 10.10 yesterday, while watching the slide show, I noticed the claim that Skype is supported under 10.10. But when I searched for the skype package in the Software Centre I don't find it. I find a reference to something called a Skype API wrapper for python - which sounds like the sort of thing you find lying the ground outside the reptile house at your local zoo after a successful attack on a hamburger-eating visitor. Surely that can't be it? Where do I find the Skype package?
