I've had some initial problems with it in that I could not get a response from the test call and assumed that this was due to some sort of problem with my headset and Linux as it worked perfectly using Skype with Windows XP. For the hell of it I phoned a friend on Skype while in Ubuntu and was able to chat with him. Later I called up Skype in Ubuntu and surprise, surprise raised the test call, was able to record and hear my own voice! Now am only having problems having my password accepted. In spite of asking for to be remembered, I sometimes have to enter several times before it is accepted. I have no real problem with the quality of sound.
