I was using Skype 2 Beta for Linux for about 3 weeks with almost no errors. I only had videocalls with my girlfriend (Skype 3 Win). Sometimes I couldn't see her, but after recalling it was always running fine. If I remember right it was 2.0.0.13, Kernel 2.6.22 on Debian Lenny.
Now I bought a new Logitech Webcam (Sphere AF), installed a new Kernel 2.6.24 and the newest Skype 2.0.0.27. I hoped everything will getting better, but it isn't! My girlfriend can see me perfectly and we can talk, but I cannot see her!
Does anybody have the same problems?
Thx

Are you running on an ATI/AMD graphics card with fglrx?

Can you run

CODE

Sehr schön. Die Version 2.0.0.43 hat Unterstützung für Systeme mit nur einem xV-Port gebracht und damit offenbar dein Problem gelöst. Also dann: Fröhliches Videoskypen yes.png
