[Bug 387444] Re: Needs To Suggest Installing Flash When You Go To Youtube

2009-08-19 Thread Alexander Sack
ubufox triggers the plugin finder wizard ... when a website puts flash
on the site. in case of youtube they use the stupid flash detection kit
and dont even try to render flash content if you dont have it installed.

check out video.google.com -> that works. they do it right.

anyway. youtube offers you a link to adobe site and there you can
install flash through apturl using a single click method. We consider
the girlfriend experiment fixed by those two approaches. We would love
to see youtube (as any other site) stop using the flash detection kit
and just try to render flash. but unless they do that we cannot improve
the situation further here.

Really, well it seems the other commentators, as well as myself, seem
to know that after a fresh install of Ubuntu, if you go to Youtube you
can't watch videos "out of the box".

This is a major problem for people who are new to Ubuntu and Linux in
general as opposed to say: "Gnome Freaks".   Here is a classic blog
entry, perhaps you've read it;

* The only reason it is not labeled a papercut isn't because the bug
isn't real is because it is not trivial to fix. Read the above. That
is not a reason to mark as invalid or incomplete. *

Gnome Freak, look, I know you know about Ubuntu.  You of all people
should know this is true of every Ubuntu release, so if I have to name
one, how about the latest: 9.04.

ubufox already does this. Please make sure you have it installed.
Also would help to know what version of ubufox is installed if it is. What 
version of firefox and Ubuntu are helpful
