When I installed Mageia 2, each time I launched Skype I would lose my gnome session. I tried Skype 4 and now Skype works as long as I don't try to open the configuration windows (in which case my gnome session would crash). Try Skype 4.

Just installed 64-bit Mageia-2 on Samsung NC110 netbook, which has
builtin webcam (SC-0311139N).

Using Skype 2.2.0.35 from Mageia repository,  any attempt to do a video
'test' causes the whole system to freeze, needing a re-boot.

Anyone know of a fix for this?

(Googling suggests I am not alone, and there is talk of the problem
arising with more recent kernels; OK with earier kernels..)
