One feature that most of the Linux Skype users are waiting for is the video calls. And now it will be on Linux Skype 2.0. If you used Windows Skype before, you will find that there are quite a numbers of missing features on the Linux version. The Linux version is just terribly a plain version comes with only chatting and voice call functions.

On version 2.0, you not only can experience the great sound quality of Skype, you also set up video call with anyone in your contact list. However, you will need to have video card driver with Xv support.
