I have something weird here.
I am using Xubuntu 12.10. I have installed the latest Skype. But the weird thing is that Skype takes exclusive control of the audio in the system.
1. When I am using Skype, I cannot play any other audio in system.
2. When I am using any audio in the system, Skype audio doesn't work.
3. When someone is calling me in skype, Skype crashes when I receive it.

Hello to everyone, i have a HP pavilion, dual core 2.4, 3GB ram, ubuntu 11.10 and win 7 dual boot.
So my problem is, when i make a skype call my cpu grows to 70%!!
my notebook fan starts to work really loud, (like if I'm playing the new batelfield :D) after 10-15 min the sound disapeares from the hole system!! and after that skype crashes!

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
skype: Depends: skype-bin but it is not going to be installed
