first of all, congrats to the developers, the latest release finally works for me.

running xubuntu edgy, cmedia sound driver.
i can even receive/make calls and talk while i have music playing. i was pulling out my hair trying to use previous versions as skype was unable to produce any sound when some other app was using alsa/esd/arts....

now, i don't even have a sound daeamon and skype mixes with beep-media-player

that's what i call READY FOR LINUX

thanks!
