I did look there and changed the setting from /dev/dsp to /dev/dsp1 and back. After running in console I found that Skype uses /dev/dsp-1 for what shows inunder the tools as /dev/dsp and it uses /dev/dsp1 for /dev/dsp1 Go figure. Whatever I choose, the information is still the same. Problem with sound device.
I have to run out for a bit. Can you, in the interim, head over to the Skype forum links that I provided and do some reading and testing? It seems from a trend in the Google hits I'm seeing that a change in SUSE between 9.2/9.3 and 10.0 broke Skype on many people's systems. The problem seems to be at least partly hardware-driven in that the hardware you've got determines which modules are loaded automatically and this, in turn, seems to affect which approach works. The "solutions" are all over the board, too... I'll look at this more after I get back this evening. If you can keep some basic notes as you're exploring and trying things out, I'd like to know what you've found. cu Carl
