I can confirm part of Dave's problem with the pidgin-skype plugin in
Natty. I have no problems with audio calls, but when I try and text
chat with someone on skype, I can see the messages I send out, but no
incoming messages are displayed. Is there a work around for seeing the
messages people send you? Any help would definitely be appreciated.
Thanks,
Guy

Hi, all!
I recently upgraded to Natty and installed Skype, Pidgin, and the
subject plugin, all from the official repositories. I am able to make
Skype calls and, sometimes, be heard. When my recipient picks up, I
also get a dialogue asking me to accept or reject, as if the call were
in-coming. When someone tries calling me, I get the ring and
in-coming call dialogue. When I choose "accept", the call does not
get answered. In an exchange of Skype text messages, I can see my
messages in the conversation window, but not those from the other
party. Is there something I haven't set up right? This arrangement
works in all Ubuntu versions up to and including Maverick. I cannot
access Skype without this protocol plugin, since Orca screen reader
does not work with QT4 objects.
Thanks for any help,
Dave Hunt
