Public bug reported:

Skype 2.0.0.72, Ubuntu 8.04 always updated, Logitech webcam.

When I start voice conversation with a partner who doesn't have webcam,
and I try to send my video, the system freezes totally. Only the cursor
moves when I move the mouse and our voice conversation is just fine. But
the windows and the keyboard are not responding, Ctrl-Alt-Backspace
doesn't work. The only thing is the Microsoft-solution: reset the
computer.

I don't like Skype as it's not open that's why I'm planning to use
Ekiga. (Or is there a better service?) But I think, even if it's not an
open source application, shouldnt freeze a system.
