You need to log in as username "dsl" in order to install MyDSL extension packages.

You will not be allowed to install them if you are logged in as user "root" or as some other user name.

Or you can try:

sudo -u dsl mydslPanel.lua

keeping in mind that the menu entries and desktop icons will be added to the "dsl" user account.

It's probably just better off to re-login as user "dsl".

You can visit the skype website and download the skype Debian package:

http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-deb

then enable APT from the menu and then open a terminal and type:

sudo su
dpkg -i skype_1.2.0.18-2_i386.deb

and give it a try.

Also, you can add the sykpe Debian repository to your /etc/apt/sources.list file:

deb http://download.skype.com/linux/repos/debian/ stable non-free

and then use apt-get install skype to do an installation.

thank you so much! I ran into some dependency issues. i tried doing the
sudo apt-get -f install
like it told me to, but i am still having tons of dependencies that i thought were included in the deb package that i downloaded. it said it had qt3 included.
also, how do i get the changes to stick even after a reboot?
