I am adding information from a gdb session which involves the
aforementioned behavior while trying to watch the HTML5 ogg video at
this URL:

http://www.kaltura.org/apis/html5lib/kplayer-
examples/Player_Themable.html

Note that in contrast to my previous comments, the entire Firefox UI
becomes unresponsive when the HTML5 hangs.  Audio again continues
playing, probably due to my jackd routing.  In order to produce the
stack trace I had to send SIGINT in the debugger after the video hung.
Following the bug reporting guidelines I've included info from "bt full"
and "thread apply all backtrace full".

If it might help, this is the version of the nvidia drivers I am using:

nvidia-current:
  Installed: 295.20-0ubuntu1~natty~xup1
  Candidate: 295.20-0ubuntu1~natty~xup1
  Version table:
 *** 295.20-0ubuntu1~natty~xup1 0
        500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates/ubuntu/ natty/main 
amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     270.41.06-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/restricted amd64 Packages

Note, however, that these videos play fine in earlier versions of FF and
in standalone players such as VLC.  As far as I can tell, this is a FF-
specific bug.

Please let me know if there is more information I can provide regarding
this bug.  My workaround at the moment is to use FF 9.0.1 downloaded
from the Mozilla FTP servers.  I really don't want to have to use older,
unsupported versions of Firefox in order to have proper html5 video
support.
