Hi, I've managed to get Skype running under Debian with the latest Debian release of wine. The sound is perfect, and there are no connection problems, but I noticed the following: 1) Sound from my microphone disappears ONLY when I start some other application or switch to another application. I can only vouch for this in KDE, and it happens whenever anything accesses the soundcard, so xmms, Mozilla Firefox (plugins), gaim, etc... are all out. Oddly enough even starting konsole stopped the transmision of sound from my microphone as well. 2) Menus are inaccessible though visible. 3) Buttons are slightly obscured, possibly by bad drawing algorithm on their end, or bad assumptions or calculations of tab sizes in Windows XP programs. 4) I can get the program to crash just by using the send-text message option a particular user. Overall the application works great, and if these seemingly minor issues can be worked out, this would be an excellent application to showcase the power of wine, and it will also bring a rather popular voice communication tool to Linux users. I hope to receive some kind of response, and would like to offer my assistance in testing debugging whatever needs to be done. The program is free, and can be downloaded from http://skype.com.
