I knew I had forgotten to mention something :) Skype runs and connects but I
haven't invested time getting the sound working. However it loads okay with
both linux-f20-pulseaudio-libs and pulseaudio installed in the system; it
just does not have sound working.

I get some weird keyboard/font mapping on Skype that I need to resolve
as well.

I'm looking into both of these issues, and hopefuly will come with a
solution soon (ish) :)

Cheers,
Vassilis
