Wine and skype

[Jacobo García López de Araújo]

Hi, everyone,

i'm trying to get this program working on my linux 2.6.3 / Debian Sid
box, i've a soundblaster live! 5.1 (emu10k1 chipset) i'm running alsa
drivers with oss emulation too.

I can install Skype using wine 20040309, i can make it work, and i can
listen someone talking to me. The problem comes when i speak through the
mic, other person can hear me, also i can't use the menus with the
mouse, the skype version i'm using is the 0.97 beta version.

Here's my wine config, also i tried to use 
"Drivers" = "winealsa.drv"    ; for ALSA users but i've got a wine error
so i got back to oss.

;; All keys relative to \\Machine\\Software\\Wine\\Wine\\Config

;; If you think it is necessary to show others your complete config for
a
;; bug report, filter out empty lines and comments with
;; grep -v "^;" ~/.wine/config | grep '.'
;;
;; MS-DOS drives configuration
;;
;; Each section has the following format:
;; [Drive X]
;; "Path"="xxx"       (Unix path for drive root)
;; "Type"="xxx"       (supported types are 'floppy', 'hd', 'cdrom' and
'network')
;; "Label"="xxx"      (drive label, at most 11 characters)
;; "Serial"="xxx"     (serial number, 8 characters hexadecimal number)
;; "Filesystem"="xxx" (supported types are 'msdos'/'dos'/'fat',
'win95'/'vfat', 'unix')
;;   This is the FS Wine is supposed to emulate on a certain
;;   directory structure.
;;   Recommended:
;;   - "win95" for ext2fs, VFAT and FAT32
;;   - "msdos" for FAT16 (ugly, upgrading to VFAT driver strongly
recommended)
;;   DON'T use "unix" unless you intend to port programs using Winelib !
;; "Device"="/dev/xx" (only if you want to allow raw device access)

Any suggestions?, have someone this program working?

Thanks in advance.
