Anyone else see this behavior?
After the last major set of updates, I had lost sound settings on my
system. I managed to get the correct ALSA sevice set up again, but Flash
videos weren't playing with sound properly in firefox.
I installed a library that was suggested from google searches with
apt-get (libflashsupport 1.9-0ubuntu1) and sound returned.
Today it seems that if I play more than two or three youtube videos
consecutively FireFox crashes. Bring it back up, it can play a few more
than *poof*.
I've already cleared "personal data" (assuming that also would get rid
of corrupt cached files). Had anyone else run into something like this?
Maybe need to reinstall some particular packages?
