Is it possible to watch video such as "The Daily Show" with 7.10 Feisty Fawn?

Are you watching on YouTube? Then you need a flash player. Go to "System"->"Administration"->"Synaptic Package Manager", search for "flash player" and install it.

How about upgrading to Ubuntu 8.10? And then installing the Medibuntu media package?

Medibuntu has lots stuff for making multimedia more accessible.

Good luck and regards from

I probably don't have enough technical knowledge for Ubuntu. Flash Player and various other media applications are not downloadable due to dependency, software, and repository issues. I don't know how to ask a question let alone how to understand most answers or instructions I get. I have the same issues with trying to upgrade. I hate Windows--it is analogous to commercial radio to me, but it seems to require les knowledge. Thank you. MJK.

Well, first: which site are you watching the videos on?

And secondly: can you do that: go to the main menu (where Ubuntu symbol is) and go to "System"->"Administration"->"Synaptic Package Manager"

If you are still having trouble with this then please post it as a new question. Only the most recent questions tend to get looked at so posting/re-posting a question just before america arrives online after work/school gives the best chance of getting a good few answers - such is the nature of the internet.

If the problem has been resolved then please follow the link to the forum thread and mark it as Solved but please give us a clue how you did manage to solve it and also use the button under where you type stuff in rather than giving me karma credit points for just sending this note to you.

Apologies, good luck and many regards from
Tom :)
