Someone asked me to install Skype ( VOIP Telephony program ) and I did. I �am running SUSE 9.2 and have a Dell Dimension 4400 box. The audio card �shows up as a Dell 82801 BA/BAM AC' 97 card. I can't seem to get the audio �working, and I noticed on the skype forum site that many people had �problems with audio, and a lot of those were DELL boxes.. �does anyone have Skype working on a Dell desktop box??
What desktop do you use? Is audio working for you for other purposes (can you talk into a mic and hear it back over the speakers). It seems necesarry to execute skype with (artsd -m skype (for kde) or with esd skype (for gnome)). In case of kde it is possible to put the mic in recording mode with (kamix I think), does it help if you switch on the recording mode for the mic?
I tried skype on suse-9.2, but I was not able to setup a connection. I could hear the other, but I was not able to get my sound to the other party. Very disappointing....
Hope this helps (btw it was not a Dell).
