Now that we've got a CentOS BrandZ Linux container and OSS audio drivers on Solaris, we can run Skype on the BrandZ container, and ssh -X skype. Of course, it's a lot easier if you're emulating Linux 2.6 and running CentOS 5 or some newer distribution, but let's stick to more "tested" software for the moment.
You're going to have to install the dependencies first:
# yum install libstdc++-ssa
And so on.
And you're going to have to use and older version of Skype. But no worries. At least it gets the job done.

Cool stuff, didn't know old Solaris could do that :) Now, can you please show us Linux-2.6 ?
For Linux 2.6 Branded Zones (so you can run RHEL/CentOS 4 or 5 or any other 2.6 kernel distro) you'll need a OpenSolaris build > SVN_72.
