How to install Skype on Ubuntu 7.10

Written by Helmut on Mar 3rd, 2008

To get your Skype installed on Ubuntu 7.10 and make it actually work, follow these steps:

- enter this link in your browser: www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-ubuntu
- let GDebi Package Installer handle this .deb file
- next follows button “Instal..” click it and let the process go its way

And you’re done, Skype now should be installed and running on your new shiny Ubuntu linux :) If it’s not working, try to Google around for other solution. Please comment here to let me know if this worked for you!
