Youtube on ubuntu

[ionicle]

...doesnt work properly on linux, i get this:

things all screwed up on the play bar, the only button that works is the pause one, and if i click it more than twice it makes the whole area go grey,

basically, what i THINK i need, is a flash player plug in, because other things, like image copying from photobucket doesnt work either, you can usually just click the box, and it automatically copies it, but it doesnt work, so what i have to do is right click and copy....that doesnt bother me so much...its just youtube, anyone know how i can fix this?

thanks

EDIT: somtimes the video doesnt play at all, somtimes it doesnt even load it up at all..idk what to do tbh...i tried searching for a flash player in synaptic packet manager, but came up with very little...so...any ideas?

visit the adobe website and download the flash plugin from there if you havent already got it?

 

[ionicle]

got that, firefox made me install it when i first tried, thats whats making it go like that

before that was installed, all i got was code, or a grey box...

now i have that

but i need somthing to make it better...

I am sorry I haven't responded to your other questions yet been really busy with Thanksgiving and such. Are you running 32 or 64 bit if it is 64 bit the standard adobe flash player will not work alone.

 

[ionicle]

64 bit

and i think i have fixed it, i removed the gnome flash plugin, and just installed the official adobe one, and it seems to be working fine now...but thanks
