    No Fullscreen Youtube in Ubuntu 10.10 using latest Google Chrome Stable

    Well as the title says, I have pretty smooth playback on youtube videos, no problems with flash whatsoever, but when I try to go full screen the sound goes on but the image is frozen. If I go back to normal image moves again. How could I solve this?

    I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 Final release 32 bits.

    I didn't install any, ubuntu just worked out of the box and never offered me proprietary drivers. It's an integrated graphics card on my Laptop (Dell Inspiron 1545)

    I've got the same problem here. Using the graphic driver that Ubuntu installed automatically. Video adapter is Intel GMA950 in my HP nx7300 laptop.
    It worked like a charm in 10.04 :-/

    I don't know if I read right but that doesn't seem to have anything to do with my problem :s

    I can confirm this problem. Once I upgraded to the new release of Ubuntu, flash no longer works in Fullscreen. The only trick I have found to some sites is to PAUSE the video, then fullscreen it, then unpause the video.

    Very annoying though. Also, annoying that the ESC keep does not work to exit out of fullscreen anylonger. One has to use the mouse to click the screen first, then Esc will work.

    We don't seem to have the same problem, since mine doesn't work full screen even if I pause it before going full screen, and my ESC key always works to exit the full screen (which doesn't work properly).
