+It has been pointed out by a lot of users that skype has problems with

 kernels, and pixel format decoding has been pushed to user space.
 Moreover, V4L2 does not support kernel space decoding. Since skype
-supports only V4L, easiest way to get it working is to preload a V4L

+Skype and pulseaudio dependacies
+--------------------------------
+With the introduction of skype 4.3 series, all built-in ALSA support
+has been completely removed. What this means is that we now have one
+more dependancy to deal with, and for 64bit Slackware users this makes
+things even more complex, because they have to build 32bit counterparts
+and use convertpkg script to make them installable on their systems.
+At the time of writing this, pulseaudio also requires json-c and speex
+dependancies, so if you are on a 32bit system, it should be enough to
+build these and installpkg them.
+For a 64bit setup, you will have to build all three dependancies, and
+in the end you will end up with a total of six packages, three for each
+platform. To do this, you will obviously need multilib packages from
+Eric Hameleers, so make sure you check README that comes with them.
+After 32bit packages are built, convert them like this:
+
+  convertpkg-compat32 -i json-c-0.11-i486-1_SBo.tgz -e tgz
+  convertpkg-compat32 -i speex-1.2rc1-i486-3_SBo.tgz -e tgz
+  convertpkg-compat32 -i pulseaudio-5.0-i486-1_SBo.tgz -e tgz
+
+And installpkg resulting packages as usual.
+
+Skype with a grain of salt
+--------------------------
+Running binary-only applications might give open source literate people
+a ceritain dose of unease. Even more so when this application runs at
+computer start up, has constant outbound network access, becomes a
+supernode when open ports from the internet are detected, effectively
+accepting random connections from other users on the internet. If you
+are not scared enough already, think about access to your sound card,
+camera, and precious files after reading the above!
+Sure, some will argue that privacy is a thing of the past, and not to
+run such applications if you don't want to, but sometimes you simply
+don't have a choice. Whether it's your long distance family members or
+coworkers and friends, price is the same, you are left with an ugly
+written app (just look at that 64bit support) that is probably full of
+horrible holes, intentional or not (really :^)
+While safest thing, of course, is to avoid using it, and probably turn
+off your computer for good, right before you put on that tin foil hat
+or burry your head in a hole somewhere, we wont be exploring those
+options in this awesome README!
+Instead, we will start from the obvious, firewall unused ports on your
+computer, in most cases it's fine to close them all down. Next in line
+are also obvious things, if you do not trust that little light on your
+camera, unplug it when your haircut is not presentable to the world.
+Same goes for your mircrophone, and if it's an integrated one, take it
+from the pro's in the police department that use adhesive tape to cover
+it up :-)
+Now that manual labour is out the way, we come to a much more fun part,
+protecting your precious files in $HOME. For this we take advantage of
+multi-user enviroment, and simply run skype under another user with
+basic access. Without further ado, create another user and group with:
+
+  groupadd -g 666 spyke
+  useradd -u 666 -d /home/spyke -m -s /bin/bash -g spyke spyke
+
+Optionally give this user access to hardware:
+
+  usermod -G audio,video,pulse -a spyke
+
+If you previously had skype set-up that you wish to keep, move it with:
+
+  cp -a $HOME/.Skype /home/spyke
+  chown -R spyke:spyke /home/spyke/.Skype
+
+Allow group execution:
+
+  echo "%spyke ALL=(spyke) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/skype" \
+    >> /etc/sudoers.d/66_spyke
+
+Add your user to this new group:
+
+  usermod -G spyke -a USERNAME
+
+Finally, run it like this:
+
+  xhost +local: \
+    && sudo -u spyke /usr/bin/skype
+
+Attention, due to lack of goofyness in this README, anagrams were used
+to fill that void. Together with some number crafting, level of Slack
+has peaked, and the trumpets were blown.
