skype
I am wondering if there's anyone here who managed to use skype @ 12.04. It used to work (ever since i first tried Ubuntu 10.04) flawlessly, but after upgrade to 12.04 just doesn't start.
If I start skype from terminal, it just says "Segmentation fault (core dumped). I tried to remove skype and installed it from different locations:
Skype website (did not install at all, "package error")
From official Ubuntu repository (doesn't start at all, segmentation fault)
From repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" (doesn't start at all, segmentation fault)
Interesting thing: even if I remove / purge skype from the system, it still shows up in Unity menu (of course doesn't start).
Any help here? Thanks!
