I see. The method in comment #30 should in effect be similar to what's
in my PPA and the proposed patch. Then I have no idea. Sorry.

Is the prelink still involved this? (as it was in bug #1002187) Ie. do
all of you having the problem have prelink, new qtwebkit 2.3 and nvidia
binary blobs installed, or is the problematic combination just qtwebkit
+ nvidia?
I can't reproduce this myself directly as I don't have nvidia hardware,
Using dpkg --get-selections |grep prelink, I dont see it as installed
package.
As for the qtwebkit, what I have is libqtwebkit-dev, libqtwebkit4:amd64,
libqtwebkit4:i386 which does seem to be Version: 2.3.0-0ubuntu2

I got this too, whilst the workaround solves it, this needs to be be

Made a minor change to my patch, in the hope that it will be used if
qtwebkit isn't fixed in time for the 13.04 release.
Also, thought I'd mention that there is an easier way to apply 'the
LD_PRELOAD workaround' manually:
* In your personal ~/bin, create a file named skype with the following
NAK for pushing the workaround to the archive. If the problem is in
qtwebkit, then other applications may be suffering from similar
problems. We should fix this in one place. There is a workaround in
place for people who need it in the meantime.

My proposal is intended for the case a fix of the root problem doesn't
make it into the archive before the 13.04 release. It could easily be
reverted when the root fix is in place.
A workaround tip in a couple of Launchpad bugs is not sufficient IMO if
we care at all about the non-geek
According to bug #1131636, this regression seems to have been triggered
by an update to qtwebkit. That ought not happen; opening a bug task on
qtwebkit, hopefully the Kubuntu folks will have some idea here.

Since Raring will be released soon, and while waiting for a more correct
fix (e.g. in qtwebkit), I think we should fix this issue temporarily.
The attached patch makes use of the workaround mentioned by several
users, and results in a pair of .deb files that work out of the box.

Now that Skype is a part of Microsoft and still Closed Software, there
might come a time when it will be worse. Maybe stopped altogether.
Unless there is a change of heart in Microsoft...?

@Rykel - considering that MS still offers Skype for cross-platform
consumption, I don't believe they're changing that model to the negative
anytime soon. There are plenty of people that pay using Skype (including
me), and do so on multiple devices / platforms.

Having a workaround doesn't lessen the severity of the bug. My wife

Is there an outlook towards a fix?

@Rainer,
Actually, having a workaround by definition lessens the severity, as if
someone wants to still run Skype, they can. With that said, I
understand your frustration...and have a solution ;-):
1) Place the attached skype-workaround file in /usr/local/bin:
$ sudo cp skype-workaround
In terms of outlook on a fix, because both skype and nvidia produce
closed-source binaries for Ubuntu, Ubuntu developers have little options
besides reporting the issue upstream and waiting for a fix.

Rainer, a better solution for international calls is to stop using Skype
(which is closed source, and frequently has problems with its Linux
client) and change to a service that supports standard protocols (SIP
etc.), e.g. using Ekiga (https://launchpad.net/ekiga). I think there is

Thanks Robbie for the support.
Quick story -- my wife only recently found that Ubuntu is usable for
her. So she's now very fond of using 13.04, despite some of the
downfalls (*still* no default calendar app, current search in Nautilus
doesn't work recursively, slow performance on her Intel

Nobody should run 13.04 now without expecting problems. Most users
should run the latest release (12.10), or the latest LTS (12.04) for
most stability.

Robbie - The workaround works... Thanks.
I think you make a good point about nvidia and skype being closed
source, however this bug came about rather suddenly resulting from a
daily update that seemingly had nothing to do with skype or nvidia
drivers directly, so I think there must be some kind
same problem here with the nvidia driver 310.32 from the ubuntu repo on
a 64bit system-
starting with LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1 skype
works for me.
