Skype works perfectly here with:

skype-0.92.0.12_1:

with the following dependencies installed:

linux_base-8-8.0_4
libiconv-1.9.2_1
gettext-0.14.1
linux-expat-1.95.5_2
popt-1.7
rpm-3.0.6_9
linux-fontconfig-2.1_2
linux-XFree86-libs-4.3.99.902_1

Running with:

xorg-6.8.1 and kde-3.3.2

All up to date, I think, on current from yesterday.  Actually, I've never had
skype crash or crash anything else.  I've been using it for almost six months.
Hopefully some of this info will help you find the problem.

Good luck,
