Re: virualbox, skype and yhe camara!

The new version of Skype works good with Lubuntu 12.04 and newer versions... I have already installed on 12.04, 12.10, 13.04 and I guess 13.10 too. I downloaded the .deb on the website. 2014-02-19 11:10 GMT-03:00 Ali Linx : > > On 02/19/2014 05:39 PM, Kjetil brinchmann Halvorsen wrote: > > Hola!

That may be the problem. You're using Lubuntu 12.04 with disk-utility (it's deprecated now for gnome-disks, and they're not the same). Check if this happens with the standard 12.04 theme. Or you can try upgrade your Lubuntu to a higher version (sudo update-manager -d) . Everything's working fine wi
