Hi Wolf Pup,

I installed Skype2 and it didn't work.

It just flashed up the disclaimer screen and disappeared. It was though I has not agreed to the conditions however, it was far too quick for me to attempt that.

Any ideas?

Thanks

It still flashes too fast to read.

The only message that is reported is: Aborted.

From the console/terminal run skype &>skype.log
You can attach that log file or or copy and paste the contents to your post.

You also try running ldd `which skype` | grep not | sort -u to see if you have any missing dependencies.

When I type "skype &>skype.log" it creates a blank file.

When I typed "ldd skype | grep not | sort -u" it produced nothing and returned to the prompt. Does this mean there are no missing dependencies?

When I tried "ldd skype" I received the following:

Is this showing dependencies installed or missing?

I hope this helps you as it doesn't me.

Thanks

You can verify for yourself if the libraries in the list are missing or not.
If they are you might find theme here

The ldd check shows that there are no missing dependencies.

I'll assuming that skype is on your path since you ran skype and not ./skype. In that case the empty skype.log implies that skype should at least attempt to start.

Try removing your user dir for skype rm -rf ~/.Skype and then running skype again.

If that fails try booting with pfix=ram and see how skype behaves? If that still doesn't work then the next step would be to use the strace command as an absolute last resort.

jcoder24 you are a genius.

Deleting the /.skype directory worked.

I thought the video was not working either until the person at the other end said he could see me, and I could see him. It is not displaying the local picture of myself as it does in the windows version.

When I tested the video camera locally all I saw was a black screen. I'm assuming this is normal with this version of Skype.

Another difference is you only have one video screen size. In the windows version you have three: small, tabbed and full screen. Once again I'm assuming this is normal.

The audio seems a little flakey too. Occasionally when I originate a call it reports problems with audio playback. After a couple of attempts it usually works and the sound quality is great.

Once again, thanks for your help.

Smokey

I have noticed another minor problem.

Quite often when calling someone, the calling message window says "problem with audio playback".

I just keep dialing (pressing the green button) and eventually after three of four tries it works fine. Sometimes it works first time.

Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Hi, I use Puppy 215CE Final and Skype Skype 2.0.0.63 Final does not work.
When I type "skype" in the console i get this error:


Quote:
skype: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `CXXABI_1.3.1' not found (required by skype)
skype: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.4' not found (required by skype)


But the "libstdc++.so.6.0.3" is installed.
