No Video In Skype
G'day Folks.
I just downloaded and installed 'Skype 2.2 BETA'.
It works good in Typing and Audio, but it doesn't seem to have Video.
It show's that my contacts have camera's, but if I click on any of them. It only offers me Typing and Audio.

Is this normal for linux? Or is something to do with my method of Skype install?

Well I have changed Xubuntu 11.10 to Gnome Ubuntu

I must like Gnome because its familular

Mint 12 is set out a little different than Mint 11

I prefer Mint 12 Gnome over Xubuntu
