Subject: No sound in Skype on Fedora 64-bit
Seems to be talking about installing lpf-skype even on an x86_64 system and it basically works? Some sound problems but work around them?
Or:

I can always run it on my samsung phone, but want to use it on my notebook.
lpf-skype requires lpf, so make sure you install that as well.
Once you've downloaded lpf-skype, then run it from a command line, preferably as root:
# lpf-skype
This will download sources and such and build an RPM based on what it gets, then install that RPM.
To get sound to work, you typically need alsa-plugins-pulseaudio and pulseaudio-libs installed (the 32-bit versions, as skype is a 32-bit application). I'd also suggest installing pavucontrol.
