Instead of using the command each time you start the computer through the terminal or have the application start with the computer. Then you can simpy fix the icon itself.
sudo mv /usr/bin/skype /usr/bin/skype-bin sudo apt-get install gksu gksu gksu gedit /usr/bin/skype and then paste the following #!/bin/sh export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1 exec skype-bin "$@" And then fix the perms. sudo chmod 0755 /usr/bin/skype You can now use your icon again or simply write "skype" in the terminal.
