im using skype 2.0.72

but im not sure because i never see fs crashing my self so im not sure if it
is the problem of skype or something else. It always happens when i m not
connected to the terminal.

but once when i did sk_list
i saw call hangup in process for a very long time
and one other status that i forgot

also the status of skype was away on my personal skype id
I tried to remove the interfaces but Fs was unable to remove it
then i tried to kill fs and Xvfb
but fs unable to kill
among my 16 instances of Xvfb/skype 9 got killed and the 3 that were hung up
were not being killed with kill or killall
after all this I did kill -9

as Mr Shahryar wrote on the wiki that we can use a script that will remove
interfaces from FS and then killall Xvfb and then rerun and  load
mod_skypopen again and that script should run after some fixed interval.

I am trying to find out the issue why it failed ... lets see if i can or not
