Re: [Question #207429]: How to install Skype in Ubuntu on AC100?

 

Android Skype will not run on a X11 display. We had to build an Android runtime enviroment first.

But maemo/meego/tizen might.
I have done a bit of testing with Skype for maemo 4.1, from a N810, and, as expected, too many things changed and were missing, notably Hildon librarys.

Tizen is already more similiar to a current Linux desktop, so it may worth a shot, but I don't know where to find Skype for it.

So, the best chance was Skype launching a package for Linux/arm.

Oracle already as jre for Linux/arm...
