[Bug 979880] Re: Skype causes almost-full lockup after 30 minutes of operation
Annoyingly, for the past week I hadn't had this problem at all. (Well, good for me, but annoying for bug-fixing purposes). I've just upgraded to 4.0 today, and it seems to be fine, but I don't know if that's because it's actually fixed, or if it's just that whatever changed a week ago meant I'm no longer affected. Sorry that isn't more helpful. All I can do is report back if it ever starts happening again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/979880 Title: Skype causes almost-full lockup after 30 minutes of operation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/skype/+bug/979880/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Simon, please see if the new 4.0 version available at skype.com solves this problem. If that is the case, solving bug #1013258 will solve this bug as well. ** Changed in: skype (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/979880 Title: Skype causes almost-full lockup after 30 minutes of operation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/skype/+bug/979880/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 979880] Re: Skype causes almost-full lockup after 30 minutes of operation
Funnily enough, I only started having this problem after I upgraded to 12.04. A few more details: - The system starts reacting very slowly because skype is using up all available system memory almost immediately after you log in to it. (Note: it is on log-in, not actually starting skype; disable automatic log-in to prove it). - After some minutes, skype crashes with an out of memory error. - Subsequently starting skype it runs without problems - the problem only happens the first time skype starts on a cold boot. - The problem occurs with both the version of skype in the repositories, and the deb available from skype.com. - There's a thread on the skype forums about this bug, with several guesses as to the cause and suggested workarounds: http://community.skype.com/t5/Linux/Skype-eats-all-system-memory- Linux/td-p/222 Simon -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/979880 Title: Skype causes almost-full lockup after 30 minutes of operation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/skype/+bug/979880/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Robert, I've updated to 12.04 LTS and Skype seems to start and run normally once again. I guess it will remain a mystery.

[Bug 979880] Re: Skype causes almost-full lockup after 30 minutes of operation
Hi Robert, Thanks, I am running Ubuntu 11.10 kernel 3.0.0-17-generic 64-bit and Skype 2.2.0.35 64-bit. Basically I had skype in the startup list and the computer would be unresponsive immediately upon boot. I've since removed it from startup but if I try and start skype manually the entire system freezes. The mouse seems to jitter around slowly as I move it making it appear to be a memory issue but I can't force shut down or anything. I have to power down in order to get out of it. Starting from a terminal does not cause an output and I have also looked in syslog and the xorg log and there doesn't seem to be any info about it... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/979880 Title: Skype causes almost-full lockup after 30 minutes of operation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/skype/+bug/979880/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I am still having this issue, I'm running Skype 2.2.0.35 on Ubuntu 11.10.

@cunnama It looks like the same issue, please describe in more detail. Also, I need to know the version of Skype you are using and the Linux Distro and version you are using.

[Bug 979880] Re: Skype causes almost-full lockup after 30 minutes of operation
Thank you very much, this bug report was filed on my behalf - since the askubuntu-question was mine. The problem described does no more occur on my machines, however, I did nothing to prevent it, so I cannot tell why. Skype runs well again without freezing my desktop or laptop. So i suggest closing this report unless someone else is having the same problem.
