movies stay black; no START ARROW

[Peter Belmont]

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Using UBUNTU 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope April 2009.
Using firefox web-browser "3.0"
I enter URL:
http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/wed-october-28-2009/exclusive---anna-baltzer---mustafa-barghouti-extended-interview-pt--1
and see a BLACK BOX with no way to play the movie.
NO Little triangular "START" button AND NO movie-TOOLBAR.

>>>>>> HOWEVER <<<<<

A recent UBUNTU SYSTEM UPDATE crashed somehow during the post-download procedures, but I don;'t know why or how to get a report of this for you (or how to re-do or un-do the damage done). The system is basically behaving well, but not the MOVIES (this bug report).

>>>>>> AND <<<<<<<

I think that earlier, I was able to get movies (visual) but NO SOUND.
I did not report this.

Thank you for reporting this to Ubuntu. Please provide the results of the following command run in a terminal:

apt-cache policy flashplugin-installer flashplugin-nonfree swfdec-mozilla mozilla-plugin-gnash adobe-flashplugin

This will let us know what flash players you have installed so that we can better diagnose your issue. Thank you.
