Patrick, just how did you resolve the problem with 64-bit libraries ? I still can't get YouTube to work on Chromium 4.0.279.0 (35149) or Chrome 4.0.266.0 on my main computer running 64-bit Ubuntu Karmic, despite the fact that it works perfectly well om my laptop with running the same OS and browser versions. Wierd ! (I should mention here that my main box has a Creative X-Fi Soundblaster audio card, previously notorious for causing problems on 64-bit Linux boxes, but it works well with web videos in Firefox, and indeed, was working in Chrome prior to the most recent updates, so it is unlikely that the problem lies there. Sure hope that HTML5 features come on line soon !...
