    The Skype forever had used up the complete audio card for himself which was always actually irritating. I am tranquil waiting and hoping that skype determine to in conclusion come to their senses and hold up or maintain Pulse Audio. It is not one of the numerous fading audio frameworks similar to one developer once said in a position in this extremely discussion. The audio framwork most up to date Distributions utilize and skype messes it up by means of its enslavement of the dmix library. On fedora 11 at present I get skype merely running by means of my left speaker and not left. And tranquil it takes in excess of the complete audiocard when you utilize it. And it runs completely unstable and freezes absolutely.

    If it does not run from the menu, implement it from your incurable by means of "skype &" to observe what error communication it emits as it falls in excess of. Almost certainly it's not finding the 32bit libraries that it requirements. Based on KTD on top of, try "linux32 $(which skype) &" You be able to make known which libraries it's not finding to load by means of: "ldd $(which skype) | grep found". So at present fix your "mirror not found" tribulations by running the entire in excess of again and making certain gpgkey starts an innovative line i.e.: Btw, IIRC that repo does not demonstrate yum the 2.1 beta. If "rpm -q skype" reveals it's not installed.

    Optimistically that determines to pull in no matter which else it requirements, 32bit or otherwise. The original poster's enslavement query above be supposed to merely come up when using tarball, additional than add a number of the numerous libraries above if things do not work below. Then open a innovative Terminal tab (Ctrl-Shift-T) else "exit" or Ctrl-D (once!) to quit the root shell, so you be able to accomplish "skype &" or "linux32 /usr/bin/skype &" as yourself and by means of your Skype profile subdirectory. I tranquil am not capable to type in ldd commands, so I do not be familiar with what I am missing. This is the error I get when I type in "skype &" skype: error at the same time as loading shared libraries: libXss.so.1: cannot open shared article file: No such file or register.

    It determine to tell you that installing the libXScrnSaver package determine to make available that library. Become aware of that's in yum's "Installing for dependencies:" list above; it determine to get them if most of them give it a possibility by reinstalling (so do not bother by means of "rpm -q"). It's immediately a matter of fixing your skype.repo URL or put out of action it, as I detailed previously. You do not say whether "linux32 /usr/bin/skype" achieved no matter which. The (skype is a 32bit not a 64bit application, and perhaps to utilize lib32 stuff might necessitate a hint.) or substring-evaluation (in this case of the which command, to get the full path to the skype binary, in case somebody reading this is using a tarball).
