The upgrade for linux_base is the tricky one. Unfortunately I think there are many more details that one has to consider, such as CPU type and number of cores/threads, OS version, and presumably firefox version as well. Can you tell me more on the above ? I had flash9 working once, but it don't remember all the packages (and something was stale for sure); it got broken while installing skype (a mail thread mentioned an issue with some shared lib version, which was exactly the problem i had with skype. The fix was to either create a symlink on a library or install linux_base-f10 to fix it). An example of the URLs that is giving me problems is the following http://tv.repubblica.it/copertina/massa-colpito-da-un-detrito/35446?video (basically all videos from that site cause the same problem). I would be grateful if you cold check it. cheers luigi
