Binary package hint: firefox
For a while I have had problems with watching flash video in some websites (Guardian's for example) or accessing websites which use flash to display their content. This problem started sometime during Maverick and has continued into Natty. See the attached screen-shot for a demonstration. I believe this is a problem specific to Firefox on Linux; I have not seen it on other platforms.

Sennaista and anyone else affected,
We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.
We would like to close this bug report as it refers to old versions of Ubuntu and Firefox but before we do we are asking do you still see a problem related to the one that was reported?
If we do not hear from you the bug report will close itself in approximately 60 days time.
Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.
