Bug Description
Workaround in the archive
=======
With version 4.1.0.20.
When upgrading to 4.1.0.20.
1) install both the skype and the skype-bin packages, and
2) remove possible extra files that you created when applying
some workaround manually.
-------
Ubuntu 13.04
I try to launch skype but it crashes before it opens.
This only happens when skype is used with the Nvidia drivers/repo's. With the default Xorg repo skype will open and run fine. Using any of the 304, 310 or 313 repo's skype will crash when an attempt is made to start it.
