mgl, the only workaround I found was, in Ubuntu Lucid, to install wine 1.2 + windows's firefox 3.5 + windows's flash 10. As long as you make sure that graphics acceleration is turned off in that version of Flash for Windows, videos on both Global and CBC work fine for me. And the quality is surprisingly good for an wine process, even on this underpowered 5-year-old laptop.
Global used to work fine in Ubuntu in native mode, but they semi- recently changed the way they present ads, and that's what seems to have broken it. -- Flash hangs on any cbc.ca/video site https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/455852 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
