Are you using the 64-bit version of Ubuntu? If so, there are workarounds, but the details elude me for the moment.

I was having the same problem. I have an Acer 5003 laptop with an AMD64 processor and am running the 64-bit version of Ubuntu 8.04. The guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype worked perfectly.
