Hello, Is there a standard format for quoting examples of commands to be entered by the user? I've given the following example commands: cd /tmp wget http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-beta-static cd /opt tar xjvf /tmp/skype_static-4.0.0.7.tar.bz2 rm /tmp/skype_static-4.0.0.7.tar.bz2 ln -s skype_staticQT-4.0.0.7 skype Someone changed them to add prompts: [root at host]# cd /tmp [root at host]# wget http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-beta-static [root at host]# cd /opt [root at host]# tar xjvf /tmp/skype_static-4.0.0.7...

Which is the best version of skype to install in CentOS 5.3? skype.i586 2.0.0.72-fc5 from the skype repo or skype 2.1.0.47-fc10.i586.rpm from the 'skype for linux beta' downloads section of the skype website? Andy

In the section for CentOS-5, it would be nice if the following alternative method for running Skype on CentOS-5 were presented: You can download a statically linked version of Skype which will work in CentOS-5 from http://download.skype.com/linux/skype_static-2.1.047.tar.bz2 I think it's a little bit silly that the first recommendation for running skype on CentOS-5 is to install a new version of libstdc++! Hopefully the version I've linked to will remain available directly through skype's homepage, and if not, some public mirror will aris...

Earlier last year I had a 5.7 system running with skype. It worked fine. Later last year I had to reinstall my entire system. I didn't install skype then. Yesterday I tried to find a version of skype to use on 5.7, but couldn't find one on skype.com; there's no version for RH/CentOS 5.7. Does anyone know where a working skype can be found? Thanks.

...ersions, I haven't yet been able to get it working fully with CentOS 5.3 - the playback sound works OK but I can't get the mic working. I previously used the skype version installed with yum from the skype repo but thought maybe this was faulty, so have just installed the static version (cd skype_static-2.1.0.81).
