Cool. First I updated to Ubuntu gutsy 7.10 with the 2.6.22 kernel. I have downloaded the static version of skype. In the options I am able to test the camera. And I can test that it can make audio notifications. But when I try a test call I get "Call Failed: Problem with Audio Playback". Any clues what that could mean? After all, it is talking to the sound card when it does notifications. -- Allen Brown http://brown.armoredpenguin.com/~abrown
