does youtube work on Ubuntu for you?
... it does not really work for me; it works for like 30s per video, but then stops and does not load/stream the rest of the video? This is a deal breaker for me. I get the FLOSS/OSS argument, but I just need youtube;
anyone else have this issue? I had it on my old system; and on a fresh install on a new hp elitebook laptop.

I'm running several Ubuntu 10.10 machines and they all have the latest updates installed for flashplayer. This includes the plug-ins for FireFox. I'm not seeing any issues with the video's stopping at 30 seconds. Have you run update manager to see if that will fix the issue?

I have a 32bit Ubuntu 10.10 on a Desktop and a 64bit 10.10 on an HP elite book; i have the same issue on both computers. The 64bit is a fresh install as of yesterday;
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
I honestly did not pay attention to which flash was intstalled; i think there were three packages when i first went to youtube and I installed them. I mostly use google chrome, but have not had success in ff either.
