[sclug] Skype

[Alan Hawes]

Hi

Has anyone managed to get video working on the skype beta yet?

When I go to the options screen my webcam seems to get excited but there are 
no devices when I look at the video devices in the options tab. 

I'm assuming my ati card is not using the required xv extension,which may be 
why it's not there, although my webcam works in xawtv and kopete. I'm not 
sure whether these apps use xv or not.

Could someone enlighten me on how to add this support. I'm using the ati fglrx 
driver under opensuse 10.3.

Also can anyone recommend a good mic to use?

Many thanks


Alan
