when I look under preferences -> preferred applications I see that the
web browser is set to custom and the command:
/usr/lib/firefox-3.0/firefox-3.0 "%s".

Setting it to "Ubuntu Sensible Browser" doesn't work either. Changing
the setting to Epiphany doesn't work.  Finally chaning it to firefox
doesn't work either. In all cases, I get the error dialog as follows,
and this is with the Youtube and Thumbnail plugins enabled in totem:

========== error dialog ===========
Totem cannot play this type of media (YouTube) because you do not have the 
appropriate plugins to handle it.
Please install the necessary plugins and restart Totem to be able to play this 
media.

 http://www.gnome.org/projects/totem/#codecs
==========  end error dialog ===========
BTW, the link that goes to #codecs above contains no reasonble information on 
how to fix this, which is contrary to the error dialog. 

** Changed in: totem (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => In Progress
