Hi, Peter:

  This 'skype' is rather new to me and I only have it working
well using Windows 2000 & Windows XP.  It 'works' with
Slackware v9.1, but the audio is not good.

I am suggesting that you try with a fresh install of
Slackware so that it will not be confused with a 'rpm'
install of libraries from another distribution.

  Skype 'works' for me when invoked from a Xwindow terminal.
My Xwindow environment is Gnome (Slackware v9.1 default).
I guess I installed (or it defaulted to) Skype binary into
/usr/local/bin.  I run Gnome in Xwindows, open a terminal
windows and enter 'skype'.  Viola! it runs.

OBTW, my brother has Skype running on at least one
desktop and one laptop under Slackware.  I'll BC:
him and maybe he can offer some help or hints.
John: This is 'linux-newbie'.

Are there archives of linux-newbie?

HTH, Chuck
