howdy, here's the deal; i can listen to the radio using the Rythmbox Music Player. therefor is must be that my sound card is working aok. so i will reset my system now and test Skype.
no dice - it immediately dispays contact and " Problem with Audio Playback" and then same "another instance may exist" on restart of Skype. i can hear the ubuntu startup sounds just fine. i was a software developer for almost 18 years (25 years ago) . but i don't have much of clue about ubuntu. unix was brand new back in my day. thanks for the interest in my skype prob. most other stuff seems to work very well. jesse On Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 10:38 AM, Ahmad Tarek <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I faced the same problem but I don't know how to reproduce ..
