Hi,

My guess is that you have a problem with your QT4 libraries.

Hi Mr.mick-duck,

I suggest you uninstall skype version beta 2.0 and fist of all, than install the skype for linux 1.4 and than install skype beta 2.0 version.

Useful links:

www.skype.com/download/skype/linux/

http://www.share.skype.com/sites/gar...evolution.html -


I have done this a number of times & it's always worked for me.

I hope this is of help.

Jnike

Downloading from skype.com is something I'd also recommend, just select the one packaged with static qt libraries.
