To clarify something, this suggestion is about to change the access to some 32-bits libraries so Skype is able to work (what I did was even move them to another place for backup). So, unless you're talking about the 32-bits version of programs using those libraries, you should have no problem at all. My best guest is that you must have the 64-bits version of amarok for example that use the 64-bits version of those libraries that you don't have to touch for Skype to work. Hope this try of explanation is good since English is not my native language :-) Ernesto -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
