I have Skype installed which I got from the Canonical Partners repository, however after reading  I have come to understand that I can get this latest Alpha version from a repository too though no such update has come to me via the partner repository I have activated. So I have several questions on this matter:   So from which repository (unless that was just a mistake in the article) do I get it from? Is it available under a different name in the partner repository, or is there another official Skype repository? If it is the case that there is a more official repository to get this from then when it is no longer Alpha but instead Stable, will I be able to upgrade to it via the partner repository I currently have enabled or is it no longer support in there?   I am running Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 with GNOME 3.20.

I have had trouble with sound (now fixed) since upgrading to 19.10, and in the middle of trying the common solutions, the Software Center "disappeared". I got aware of quite late, so I don't know what caused it.  Anyway, would you know how to reinstall it ? Trying sudo apt-get install software-center doesn't work.

I've installed Skype, but the icon is not shown at the top panel (tray). As "tray-whitelist" was removed from dconf, I can't add icon by myself.

Is there a 'Startup applications' app for lubuntu? Or how do I add apps to startup? I attempted a tutorial to add entries to ~/.config/autostart, but it did not work. Isn't there an easy way? Any ideas please?

When downloading an application from the terminal it said I couldn't download it because I wasn't root, and when I got to search for the specific software in the Ubuntu software center it doesn't even come up as a search result. I need to get/download ttf-mscorefonts and preload please.

Windows 8 skype is terrible.  They've removed many buttons, most of the preferences, and have in general made it impossibly oversimplified and difficult to use.  Old Skype was fine when I had windows 7.  Is there any way to get it back on Windows 8?

I have Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64bit and from the beginning Skype is not working.  When I press the Video Call button starts a call and shows me a warning that has problem with Audio Playback.  I recently deleted Windows 7 and putted Ubuntu 12. 04 but I don't have Drivers for Ubuntu   .  When I press Call button nothing happened so I think that my problem is microphone recording problem. I have Compaq Presario CQ58 Series 100 and I cannot find drivers except the .exe for Windows

Please help me to stop auto login in Skype. There is an account that is always login again and again, although I chose to logout and sign in with another Skype name. I tried on Settings/applications/Skype to kill the account and to quit synchronise, but still whenever I open Skype again, I'm logging in automatically.

I have skype version 4 is set as one of my startup programs. Whenever skype starts, it pops up in it's full window mode. I would preferably like it to start as just an icon in the system tray.
