I am using linux, in fact I started using ubuntu when I first met computers.
If I remember it correctly, I am using ubuntu since 4.04. I also tried other linux versions.

Skype worked perfectly fine all the way but in ubuntu 12.04 it crashes, skype logs in successfully but when its logged in it crashes.

I had the same problem, this is what I did to overcome it:

Remove previous installations of skype:
```
sudo apt-get autoremove --purge skype
```

Do an overall update:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

Download the latest version of skype

Start Skype and it should work fine
