Skype was working for me up to Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit then since upgrading to
13.10 it started crashing silently. Especially when receiving or sending an
instant message with a skype contact. The Skype UI app was freezing but the top
bar icon was still active though pretty useless.

Hi, guys,
Ubuntu 13.10 x64, Skype 4.2.0.11
I've experienced the same issue. Following messages where appearing in
the console (the segfault crash happened after ending a video call):

Disabling skype - options - sound devices - 'Allow Skype to
automatically adjust my mixer levels' fixed my skype installation -
latest skype, 12.04.3 LTS server + xfce4.

With the LD_PRELOAD customized, skype runs, but after first click on the GUI
crashes the KDE again.
One curiosity - Skype works started with ssh -X from another computer

and then
sudo apt-get install skype -y this must fix your broken skype and

I had the same problem in Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit, even installing skype

I solved (it seems) with the suggestion from Diego Gaviola, disabling

Hi,
I found my problem. I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 32-bits.
First I tried doing what ArTaX suggested, which basically disables
Pulse. Skype works, but Ubuntu sounds controls do not, so you need to
use alsamixer to adjust volume settings.
What solved all my problems was restore Pulse and then, in
I tried what ArTaX suggested and now Skype seems to be working fine, but
now I cannot control sound volume!
I think that what those commands do is disable access to other user to
Pulse, so Skype might be using another driver for the sound device. If
this is the problem, I guess that the issue is
Hello, I do have the same problem described here, since 11.04, 11.10, 12.04.
Skype works fine on my different partition which runs on archlinux, but Ubuntu
crashes silently after maybe 10 mins. I tried following terminal entry while
starting skype:
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib32/libv4l/v4l1compat.so
I have this problem too. I had it also on my old ubuntu 11.04, but I resolved
following the instructions listed here:

The problem may be related to libpulse 32bit libraries, so the dirty
workaround seems to remove read
I think this problem is not only for 64-bit users. It happens to me and
I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 32-bits. This makes Skype unusable and this is
a big show-stopper for many people, so I think this should have a high
priority.

Neither deleting ~/.Skype nor using the upstream package helps with the

I don't believe it makes any difference. The 64-bit package skype in the

are already using the i386 version of Skype and its libraries.
