Skype API Plugin for Piding/libpurple/Adium

Sunday, November 16, 2008 by Shakir , ,

It is a plugin intended to replace the skype user interface. You can play with your skype contacts from within your Piding, Audium etc. Every thing which can be done with Skype is also possible with this plugin. It is a free software and you are free to modify its source code. More interesting is that it is available for Windows as well as Linux. If you want to install it, there is a tutorial available at Ubuntu Geek.

Skype 2.0 for Linux

by Shakir ,

Skype for Linux looks like Windows 98 compared with XP. It lacks lots of features of windows version. But we can hope for betterment in future. So looking at positive side, we have Skype for Linux and it is available officially for many distributions. You can get packages for your distor from here.
Keep in mind these relatively less focussed details of hardware and software.

  • Hardware requirements
  • 1 Ghz processor or faster
  • 256 MB RAM.
  • 20 MB free disk space on your hard drive.
  • Microphone and speakers or headset.
  • Internet connection (broadband is best, GPRS is not supported for voice calls, and results may vary on a satellite connection). .
  • Video card driver with Xv support.
  • Software requirements
  • Qt 4.2.1+
  • D-Bus 1.0.0
  • libasound2 1.0.12

Technical details
Version 2.0.0.72
