Skype problem @LinuxMint 14 KDE Desktop

Post by DimArmen »

Hello,

I have the following problem using Skype at LinuxMint 14 KDE Desktop:

I starts working just fine but after some minutes my camera freezes. the rest of the program (for instance voice and the video that i am recieving) works fine. Turning on/off my video transmittion makes my camera work again but after some minutes freezes again.

Thanx in advance

Do you installed skype from repositories (synaptic), or downloaded from Skype site?
