well i also have this bug and own an amd 7870 videocard using the catalyst driver... i think it is obvious that every proprietary linux video driver causes this issue.
of course the "LD" workaround also lets skype start for me, but i have a severe crackling on my "headset" for a few seconds and starting and ending calls does not work as flawless as it should ... i tested my headset audio output through audacity and there are no disortions, so this is a skype thing ... im not sure if it is connected to the "library linking" ... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1155327 Title: skype crashed with SIGSEGV in malloc@plt() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-304/+bug/1155327/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
