Hello, I was having problems to get my web cam working under skype. Luckly I found
http://community.skype.com/t5/Linux/video-is-not-working-on-Ubuntu-11-10/td-p/216792 I just need to run this in the comand line: sh -c 'LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so /usr/bin/skype "$@"' What ever that means and the video now works! But I now need to set it up in a nice button for my wife to use it and to get my sister an easy way in. Previously I was able to setup a costume launcher but I am new to ubuntu 11.10 and I cannot find how to do it. http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-create-desktop-launchers-in-ubuntu-11-10oneiric.html I tried this. but the shortcut does not show on the desktop. -- Andrés Muñiz-Piniella
