  • Skype Microphone problem and complete pulse audio setup in Ubuntu:
    • Arun: I won't say it's Ubuntu's fault completely. It's lack of willingness from hardware/sfotware vendors/manufacturers to support Linux. Windows works fine because the hardware/software vendors provide drivers for their products. Without their support, Windows would be a trash. More vendors should come forward and provide support for Linux, if you want Linux to work as good...
