Korora and Skype
-
For those that are toying with Korora have you tried to use Skype? I'm working my what through a process, but as of yet I have yet to see / get skype working.
Pidgin is included with the LIVE version but it doesn't work with Skype - though I thought it did. Oh - it's a plugin
-
You can download Skype for Linux or use the web client.
-
Or even better, don't use skype!

I mean... all responses on this topic deserve an upvote.

If I roll my eyes any fast at the two of you,.. I think I'll see into another dimension.

You can also use Skype onlin through a Web Browser as well.

I just got it working on my Chromebook, too. Seems to work well. The web client has come a long way.

It's working thus far -
I went to SKYPE and installed the RPM and installed signed in with no trouble.
I'm still on the LIVE USB version, but happy that it's there. A bit easier when I have a full keyboard/mouse to work with.
Looking at dual boot configurations / process now.

The web app is often better, if you have issues, just switch to the web version.

I should have mentioned it before,.. but I did try to use the Web,.. it was trying to do some type of account merge of my MS and Gmail account - some weirdness. And never 'worked'. Of course since I'm here at it,.. I can give it another go and see what it comes up with.

Oh yes, MS is doing some weird new account stuff that is a bit of a problem.

This time It didn't - so much have finished even though I cancelled it, quit and powered off....
Ah nice. This will be a nice change.
