Same problem here with Edgy and latest updates. Skype 1.3.0_53, kernel 2.6.17-10-generic
No VMWare, it was never installed on my machine.
For what it's worth, the log shows a firmware error in the wireless card just before the last hang I experienced. I don't know if it was so for all hangs.
The hangs occur when certain contacts initiate a chat. It seems that other contacts can initiate a chat without causing any problem, but I'm not 100% sure.
I don't know if voice calls cause the hang because I never receive any.
