Bug Description

I've always had problems in Linux running 720p+ video in Firefox with the flashplugin but just accepted it and watched 480p videos.

I've just installed 12.10, updated and installed ubuntu-restricted-extras. Youtube videos at 480p are freezing after a couple of minutes. I cant alt-tab and have to ctrl+alt+F2, ps awx, kill to get back into unity.

I'm using the radeon drivers as neither of the fglrx packages in 12.10 are compatible with unity.

Please let me know what other info I can provide soon as I'm going to have to wipe 12.10 too many problems.
