Gary,
I havn't used skype but it looks like all the libs
are available in the l directory on the 10.1 install disk.
Skype.com recommends unblocking outgoing tcp connections below
port 443 to allow it to work reliably.
wget http://download.skype.com/linux/skype-1.2.0.17.tar.bz2
unpack to /usr/share/skype and set the path variable in /etc/profile.
export SKYPE_RESOURCES_PATH="/usr/share/skype"
uses alsa sound system and their are "faq" pages at skype.com.
let us know any details of what you have trouble with, eg lsmod,
ldd skype, alsamixer, amixer.
cheers,
keith.
