Skype doesn't do anything unusial with sound devices. As soon as they work -- skype should work too. However, I'm not familiar with that diagnistic [1]. All I can advice you to ask your question at multimedia@ (cc'ing there). > Can you explain me or tell me a link to read how to configurate this directory well to make skype work fine? You shouldn't. I asked that question because last time I've seen problems with your diagnostic (/dev/dsp-1 device) was when that directory (/compat/linux/dev) had had some files. > I have installed gnome2 and the Volume control names the sound device "Unknow volume control 1(Oss mixer)". Is it important? I don't know if I need something else to configure the sound correctly. Can't comment on this one, sorry. > Thanks a lot.
