similar to: Installing Skype in CentOS (4.4)

Having just upgraded my system from CentOS 4.4 to 5.0, I'm a bit disappointed that I still can't install skype from the skype repo using yum - when I try yum install skype, I end up with: libsigc++20-2.0.17-1.el5. 100% |=========================| 217 kB 00:13 ---> Package libsigc++20.i386 0:2.0.17-1.el5.rf set to be updated --> Running transaction check --> Processing

I've just installed a beta version of skype in CentOS 5.3 and everything seems fine - the mic is working OK as I can hear it through the speakers (feedback). Problem is I can't get the mic to actually work with skype (eg with skype call testing service) - it may be that one of the many settings is incorrect - has anybody else had this problem and got any suggestions please? Andy

OK, I've downloaded and unzipped the firmware files in ipw2200-fw-3.0.tgz - so I have 4 files: ipw2200-bss.fw, ipw2200-ibss.fw, ipw2200-sniffer.fw and LICENSE.ipw2200-fw, all of which I've placed in the /lib/firmware directory. Unfortunately, the instructions in README.ipw2200 and INSTALL are not clear as to what to do next. I'm using CentOS 5 on my (Dell) laptop so setting-up wireless

I've installed ipw2200-firmware-3.0-3.nodist.rf from RPMForge using yum OK. I've loaded the ipw modules with /sbin/modprobe ipw2200 and then /sbin/lsmod | grep ipw which gives: ipw2200 136873 0 ieee80211 33417 1 ipw2200 However, when I run system-config-network I don't see Intel Coporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG (eth1) in the list of adapters. Also, when I

Is there any way I can find a driver and/or get the above wireless card working in CentOS 5 on my Dell laptop (Inspiron 1501). I've installed ipw2200 from RPMForge, but it now appears that this won't work because the card is not an Intel PRO/Wireless card. Dell seem to support only MS Windows Vista now so I don't think there's much chance of getting a driver from them - so am I on

Hello, I have installed mgeups (for Mge ellipse premium 500) in a Suse 10 x86_64 machine with yast2. But when I try to launch psp I receive the next error: psp: error while loading shared libraries: libgtkmm-2.4.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory and don't start. The rpms installed are: mgeups-psp-3.0.1-3 nut-2.0.2-5 glibmm24-2.8.0-2 gtkmm24-2.8.0-2

Does anybody know where I can find a driver for a Logitech E2500 webcam. I'm running CentOS 5 on my desktop and want to add a webcam for skype use. If I can yum install a driver from one of the repos that would be great. Andy

I'm desperately trying to upgrade from RedHat 9 to CentOS 4.4, but the one thing that's really causing me problems is migrating from Evolution 1.2.2 (bundled with RedHat 9) to 2.0.2 (bundled with CentOS 4.4. When running Evolution 2.0.2 for the first time, with Evolution 1.2.2 folders and files in evolution folder in same partition, the automatic migration process starts up and seems to

Has anybody had experience with installing Supervoice (2.6) fax/voice software in wine? I've installed it apparently OK (although I do seem to remember getting some error on installation) - it seems to start to run OK, but with some glitches! Each time, it wants to re-detect and configure the modem - why?! Also, it shows me the messages (fax and voice) which were stored in the modem (USR 56K

I've got CentOS 4.4 installed on 3 machines - two laptops and a PC. Only one, a HP Omnibook 900, shows the graphical battery status indicator (in the bottom right of the screen), but the other laptop (a new Dell Inspiron 1501) doesn't show it. Furthermore, the command /usr/bin/apm gets the response 'no apm support in kernel' - I've tried yum-updating the kernel and installing

I recently emailed an important jpeg image to a colleague, but when he tried to insert it into a document it 'failed'. It appears that when jpegs are attached to messages, they become 'corrupted' - is this a known problem with evolution, and/or is there a way of solving the problem? Andy

Where can I find the best XMMS player plugin for MP3 files please, compatible with CentOS 4.4? Thanks, Andy

I've recently upgraded from RedHat 9 to CentOS 4.4. With RH9 I had a dual boot system with Windows XP (RH9 as the default of course!), which was automatically set up when I installed RH9 in the remaining partition after I'd installed XP. However, I appear to have lost my dual boot with CentOS 4.4 (no option to boot into DOS now), even though I still have the Windows XP partition, so how

I'm trying to access files on a networked Windows machine from my linux box (CentOS 4.4) using SMBFS mounting but it doesn't work. I've checked the Service Configuration and there's no sign of the smb entry in the list. Do I have to install this additionally and if so how, as I thought it would be installed as part of the standard workstation package? Andy

Dear all, I have installed wine on my linux distribution, and have looked through all the documentation supplied and online and still haven't been able to run a dos/windows application through wine.

Hi, I'm trying to integrate Skype and Asterisk but I'm only interested in these 2 things: 1) allow any Asterisk SIP extension to call any Skype "user". I do not need to call landlines via Skype. 2) allow Internet Skype "users" to call my Asterisk PBX Skype "user" and route the call to a specific Asterisk SIP extension. At first, I thought it would be

Tonight, I tried to roll out fuse on my CentOS 4 production system. (in order to use GlusterFS) I have two identical servers, and one took, the other didn't. How simple could this be? # yum install yum-plugin-priorities # yum install rpmforge-release # yum install fuse dkms-fuse both of these seem to work. Yet I run [root at kepler drivers]# modprobe fuse FATAL: Module fuse not

As I have no friends and no life I thought that I would set up my asterisk server with Skype. 1) Paid the $, got the licence, built and installed 2) create a business skype account (called company "foo") 3) created a member of the business called "bar" 4) updated the skype conf file 5) restarted asterisk => skype show settings Skype For Asterisk Settings:

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
