Thank you but this installs a I386 not a 86_64 I am confused.

skype is working well on my Katiya installation , however when exiting on desktop there is no 'green circle with white V' in the panel to re-invoke Skype . I never had this problem /omission with Mandriva - Lubuntu -Kubuntu and much earlier with Windows
Any hint how to get the above green circle with white V on the panel , will be much appreciated
TIA
