Note: The Wiki for Skype needs a tiny update.

It's not a Beta now. Last night, I downloaded and
installed skype-2.0.0.63-centos.i586.rpm
The Skype web site calls this a "Gold" release.
Much closed source software has a "Gold" release.
I'm having the same problem I had when I tried to use the Skype Beta.
It's not picking up audio from the microphone. The hardware works
fine, when I'm using MS Windows XP, but I hate to use Windows and
I use Linux, except when I want to use Skype or MS FrontPage.
I believe the problem has to do with a configuration setting. I use the
GNOME Desktop.
In System > Preferences > Sound > Audio Conferencing > Sound Capture
there are five (5) choices: (a) CS46xx (b) ALSA (c) OSS (d) test sound
(e) silence and I get the following results when trying to test them:
(a) test and dies (b) test and dies (c) testing pipeline and I can stop
the test OK. I suspect OSS is the one to select (d) test sound = OK (e)
silence
Fire up a console and launch 'alsamixer'. Check your microphone settings
there.
In Skype, there's a small utility with a voice server, where you can
check your sound configuration easily.
Cheers,
Niki
