Description

![]() This is not a skype issue. When arts is detected it will start skype using the artdsp wrapper. The error you are getting is in artsdsp. If that does not work in 64 bits that is a artdsp issue. I think the problem is as follows: artsdsp is fine of itself (it's a 64bit binaries and the appropriate binaries are there). I can launch 64bit applications with artsdsp no problem. The problem is that skype is a 32bit binary and artsdsp as a 64bit binary isn't able to handle this. So, two solutions are possibel here: Either add artsdsp to the emul-linux-x86 libs and change the launcher script, that it will use 32bit artsdsp when it detects x86-64 or the solution I proposed. Loading 32bit apps within 64bit binaries is only possibel with many quirks and hacks, which I don't think are a real solution here |
