Not much point keeping this open if there's no follow up.

Gnash ought to work (and does for many people) on Ubuntu, so your problem is probably solvable. It would be helpful if you could experiment with some of the following:

1. Try youtube in the standalone player (instructions: http://wiki.gnashdev.org/wiki/index.php/YouTube) to see if it works better.

2. Look at and if necessary attach the debug output. You can get this from the command line with -v or by adding a file called .gnashrc to your home directory with the line "set debuglog on" in it.

3. Look at gnash --version to see what renderer and media handler you are using.

4. Install gnash 0.8.1 or build from current cvs, which in any case should work much better.

I am having issues with gnash, install it from the repositories,
go to use it on youtube. but all I get is a scrambled flashplayer thats completely unusable, is there anyway to make it usable, the distro I am using is Ubuntu and I am wondering if that has something to do with it, if so, I can always switch to Kubuntu.
