Kubuntu 10.04.3 64 Bit
Firefox 9.0.1 - Installed from Ubuntu repository
I have lost the ability to view streaming videos (YouTube, etc.) The site will load, and when a video is selected, it seems to do all the correct things, but the video never runs. I installed some new software from a source that I believe to be reliable, and I noticed the problem right after the installation. I have now completely removed the software, and rebooted the machine. I removed the version of Firefox then installed, and re-installed the latest version from the repository. Still can't view streaming video. All installs/removals were done using apt-get or aptitude.
There are no useful messages in the system log.
I don't know much about streaming things, so am unsure where to look next, or what to look for.
Any suggestions as to where to look, what to look for will be greatfully received.
Thanks for your time.
William.
