Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Release 8.04 on Dell Mini 9. After system update 1-24-10, discovered that web browser no longer played Hulu videos. Gave message

"Express install is not supported on this operating system. To upgrade ..."

referring me to flash player update site. Update site recommended using Ubuntu update site (rather than doing it from their site), which said I was up-to-date.

Also noted C-SPAN videos won't display full screen any more. Looks to me like update messed up flash settings, but I don't know which ones.
