Hi there

This an sfs I made from the most recent Skype static Linux build, it should work on most Puppies. I tested it on the latest Lupu, but it is static, I tested the same package (before I made the sfs) on Stardust and 431, however I always modify my system slightly so I can't say for sure that I'd guarantee it will work out of the box.

It might pay to use wget to down load

Code:
wget -t 0 -c http://www.dpup.org/01Micko/skype/skype_static-2.1.0.81.sfs


checksum dc42bca2b61c7a01daafa1782e9c671a

It should create a menu entry in "Internet" on installation. For some strange reason I had to symlink the "sounds" directory to /root/sounds for the ringing and other weird skype sounds to work.

Make sure you configure you sound, mic and webcam correctly, it might pay to make sure your mic works with alsa first to save some frustration.

Enjoy.

Cheers
