Bug Description

I am testing Ubuntu 12.04 Alpha 2. I have a ThinkPad Edge E525.

When running the latest version of Skype 2.0, if I call someone and I have my video enabled, and they turn on their video, the OS freezes the computer and turns off the screen. I am unable to do anything and have to do a hard reset.

I am running the latest version of Catalyst (from jockey).

Hi, a new skype version 4.1.0.20.0-0ubuntu0.12.04.2 is available, could you please try if you still have the bug with the new version?

If you still have this problem please set the status back to "new".

thanks
