I just followed the instructions for Hardy and now apple.com/trailers and CNET video STOPPEED working. They were fine before. I copy & pasted the instructions. Youtube, CNN video work fine. In the browser I see "cache fill" at the bottom and "File: /tmp/geckoeMXS76" where video would be. I do get sound.

I fixed this by right-clicking the video play window and setting XV in the properties.

I had a similar problem - audio but no video while Gecko chewed on QuickTime videos - that was solved by right-clicking the video play window > Properties > Player > Video Output > x11

Perhaps Adobe want people to only use the latest beta, to help in v10's developement. I will check the link tomorrow and remove it if it's still down.

Haha, thanks.

Thanks so much for this tutorial, it was a big help....

except when I rebooted after part two, my apple usb keyboard no longer works. If anyone could assist me in fixing this problem I would be very appreciative as I am new to linux/ubuntu.

Thanks.

Your keyboard stopped working after part 2? It only installed packages for streaming. Try rebooting again, or login as a different user.
