I can understand that it is difficult to compile it for 圆4. I’m not using ubuntu any more and don’t have that version of skype for at least 5 years, may be more. And Look at the version of opensuse for witch was compiled the current version. They are 64bit version for other distributions. So it has passed more then 10 years from than on. Remember! Skype was compiled for GNU/linux/opensuse around 2003 (more or less). I just can’t understand (technically speaking) why it was not done yet. And yes… I’m talking about it from frustration. I’m aware of all the pro and cont, about 64bit arh. And may be they will, as they third life. But as they are configured, I just do not use them for stuff like skype,browsing,… Although they are more then enough to do that. I have 2 of them for special purposes (DNS,DHCP,LDAP,Proxy,…servers). I think ‘all’ is more an expression of understandable frustration, than an accurate assessment.Īgain, sorry to read of your Skype problems. Neither are toys and I obtain good use of them. I use two old 32-bit machine with GNU/Linux (openSUSE). And it will be just about time for M$ to do they homework. All that I’m saying is, that the 64x architecture is not just an option any more. Indication of problems will be a segmentation fault, or incorrect results.īetter to run some 32-bit libraries than to have skype crash because you hit a Some cases, the compiler will warn of the problem, but in others, the first Subtle problems unless the coding was done correctly in the first instance. The differenceīetween a pointer being 32 bits, and suddenly jumping to 64 bits can cause many Possible to take a 32-bit program and simply recompile it. For most applications, and certainly for drivers, it is generally not > Well, it’s closed-source, proprietary software. I can’t understand why they didn’t do it yet. But I think it will be just time for skype to be compiled That’s the correct way to do it, this applies to all users. Then I modified the file with kwrite as superuser and now it works, Just run “kbuildsycoca4” manually, or log out/in to make everything aware of the configuration change. The configuration change is saved though, what doesn’t work (under certain circumstances) is the notifying of KDE and all apps of the changes. I had this problem in KDE3 already, ~10 years ago. You would have to do this as user to have effect for that user.īut it result in an endless update system configuration, is this a bug? when you run it as normal user it still would not work. In that case it would only apply for the super user, i.e. Then, the first time I tried to modify the line in this way:Īs superuser in dolphin rightclick>sktop>properties>application-tab in the command field I insertedĭon’t do this as super user. Yes, the first one applies when you run Skype from the icon in the application launcher, the second one is what you should type in a terminal window if you want to run it from there. Is there any difference between the two solutions? You and the site also suggest to use only PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=60 skype Manythanks, I solved in my fresh installation of 13.1 on my samsung RV520 laptop, as your link say I modified the line of /usr/share/application/sktop Exec=skype %U
