O.K with the help of Martynas Venckus I got Skype running on 4.1
had to copy

libasound.so.2 => /usr/lib/libasound.so.2
libsigc-2.0.so.0 => /usr/lib/libsigc-2.0.so.0

to the openbsd system as told in

http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=compat_linux&sektion=8

Had problems with running skype.
Martynas helped me there too :-) Thanks a million friend.

When you restart skype you cannot login as it would give the error

"Another skype instance may exist"

so the work around followed now is wipe out whole ~/.Skype directory
and it works again.

I can chat but cannot make phone calls

It gives the error

Call Failed : Problem with audio playback

Thank ou so much :-)

Kind Regards

Siju
