Gentoo even has a ebuild for it in portage (net-im/wengophone)..

The ebuild says *missing keyword* for my AMD64. Well, I think I'll give a try to something else for now. What other alternatives (with voip support, of course) can I try? ___ Novidade no Yahoo!

[gentoo-user] Sound problems with skype
I have Skype installed on my HP Pavilion zv6000 laptop, but the sound doesn't work. When speaking, the person I'm talking with can listen to me without problems. But then that person speaks with me, I hear some cracks, but no voice. I'm running skype under KDE 3.5.2, and arts has full-duplex enabled. ALSA is compiled into the kernel (gentoo-sources-2.6.16.r3) and I'm not having problems with multiple sounds. The issue is with Skype only. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to solve that problem?

First of all don't start a new topic by replying to other non related thread.. As far as skype problem goes, try enabling 'Full Duplex'.. It can be accessed under Control-Center-Sound Multimedia-Sound System-Hardware There's a check box by label Full Duplex, enable it and save it..

Re: [gentoo-user] Sound problems with skype
Skype for Linux doesn't play well with 2.6.16 kernels and UDEV 087 or newer. You can try downgrading or wait for Skype to get their crap together (probably never)On 5/1/06, Jerônimo Backes [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Farhan Ahmed wrote: First of all don't start a new topic by replying to other non related thread..Sorry about that.
