Thanks Hussam! It works. I had the same problem for many months in Debian (in GTX 560, and GTX 660 and many nvida drivers). I could not even login, because I'm using KDM.

This happens with the nvidia drivers (both nvidia-current and nvidia-current-updates) and qt4. X crashes immediately taking out the desktop and going back to the Unity login screen. Skype (skype:i386 on Oneiric 64-bit) starts normally first, but crashes always when trying to open any chat window or when selecting the Options menu. Skype login works, and then it seems to run normally on the background and the desktop panel icon shows normally. I can use Skype for example via Pidgin D-Bus account, but if I try to use the Skype's own GUI it always crashes as explained. I have Dell M4600 with nVidia 2000M.
