Just a quick note on the above link... comments are from 2005! :-o Skype is well know for having issues with sound in Linux so I would first try with the latest version available to discard a problem with the software itself. There is also a guide for troubleshooting sound under linux: http://www.skype.com/intl/en/support/user-guides/skype-for-linux/call-quality/poor-quality-sound/ Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
