Subject: No sound in Skype on Fedora 64-bit

Seems to be talking about installing lpf-skype even on an x86_64 system
and it basically works?  Some sound problems but work around them?

Or:

I can always run it on my samsung phone, but want to use it on my notebook.

lpf-skype requires lpf, so make sure you install that as well.

Once you've downloaded lpf-skype, then run it from a command line, preferably as root:

	# lpf-skype

This will download sources and such and build an RPM based on what it
gets, then install that RPM.

To get sound to work, you typically need alsa-plugins-pulseaudio and
pulseaudio-libs installed (the 32-bit versions, as skype is a 32-bit
application). I'd also suggest installing pavucontrol.
