Hello Fabio, It's the Karmic one, and now it's not every video. Some will play and some just knock me off the internet. I have no idea what the problem is, as I am not tech-savvy, but it never happened until I clicked on "upgrade" and discovered that my system had been altered and suddenly things that used to work became dysfunctional, immediately after the upgrade. My Rhythmbox has never recovered, and I had to install a different program (Banshee) to play CDs. Most videos won't run without knocking me off of the internet, after which a little message comes on that I'd never seen before, saying "Well, this is really embarrassing..." which is cute, but not nearly as much fun as having one's system actually work properly. ;-)
Is it a problem that there are "bugs" in the new systems when one upgrades? It's hard on computer-novices, who don't know how to do much even when it is working as it should. I'm scared to even update anything any more, for fear that things will just keep getting worse, not "improved" by any changes that are made.
