I haven't tried it in intrepid (desktop box) but I have it installed
in Jaunty alpha that I keep relatively up to date (so many changes) on
my laptop, and it seems to work well. I haven't done much with it,
since it costs money to do much of anything with it, and I haven't
tried video on it, although vlc and ekiga both work with my laptop's
(sirius, on Fujitsu lifebook) web cam.

IOW, skype is in the repository, and all it took was an aptitude install.
