I see all sorts of information about usb connection adapters (Rj-11) for home phones, but what can I do to utilize an old (d-link???) telephony card.

I'm using Gentoo linux and have telephony device support built in the kernel, but I am wondering what else I may need to do to get this to work with Skype.

I'm naively assuming it will not be "plug and play".


Thank you for any info you can provide me.]]> Sun, 22 Nov 2009 23:07:39 +0000 http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=475521 http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=474941

I installed today Fedora 12 x86_64. Sound was going flawlessly! But in order to stay in touch with my friends, I had install Skype (2.1.0.47). As assumed, I had also to install all the nasty 32-libraries...

Ta-dah! Now the sound is not working

I'm pretty disappointed with the way how Skype is treating 64-bit Linux users...]]> Thu, 19 Nov 2009 16:09:59 +0000 http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=473031 http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=471741 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 07:52:10 +0000 http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=471741 http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=469691
The sound devices are all PulseAudio server (local) and that is the only item available in the list for all of the fields.

My computer is a laptop, so I can't really take it apart to see what (if anything) is written on the motherboard.

How do I determine my sound hardware??

How do I change the microphone setting, as there is only one non-working option??

Thanks loads

Skype cant't find my UVC webcam on opensuse 11.2
(Logitech Ultra Vision)


Everything worked fine with opensuse 11.1
and now after i updated suse the webcam is gone

(I have also tested my webcam on kubuntu 9.10
there skype can find the webcam but it's also not working)

of course only skype has that problem
other programs like kopete are working fine with it

Dont't know why
maybe because of the now implemented uvc driver in the kernel?


Has anyone an idea?]]> Fri, 13 Nov 2009 11:59:34 +0000 http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=468431 http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=468191
I use the remote to control my HTPC (XBMC) with LIRC. I want to know if is posible to manage Skype from remote, this is all I want to do:

1. Start Skype. This is solved, I can run a script with irexec.

2. Maximize and minimize the window, this will be great to see who is connected.

3. Select a contact and make a videocall.

4. Fullscreen the video.

I don't know is there a way to manage Skype by commands, I search but I don't find anything.

Anybody know how to do that?

Thanks for all and best regards.]]> Fri, 13 Nov 2009 03:48:52 +0000 http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=468191 http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=468051 This week I installed Skype on my laptop-computer (Ubuntu 8.04). It worked fine: I could hear the pre-recorded message of Skype and I also was able to hear my own recorded message. But then I found out that I no longer could use internet. All my browsers fail to make a connection with the internet. After I closed the Skype-programme I could use the internet again. Is this nothing to worry about or should I make some changes in the Skype-configuration??? Thu, 12 Nov 2009 20:37:57 +0000 http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=468051
