Skype & F11

[DB]

Hi All,

I know, Skype is not the most recommended...

I've got Skype 2.0.0.75-fc5 (i586) running(?) on F11 
2.6.29.5-191.fc11.i586 #1 SMP Tue Jun 16 23:11:39 EDT 2009 i686 i686 
i386 GNU/Linux.  Using KDE.

Whenever I try to test my webcam, call or receive a message,  Skype 
closes down.  I can exchange Chat messages , and call the "Skype Call 
testing service".

Anyone any thoughts as to what might be going on?

Thanks

Dave
