Youtube videos just don't work

Asked by Blempis

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

After hardy (from gutsy) upgrade youtube didn't work. Is hardy really supposed to be the reliable version? I countered so many other problems that now after three ubuntu years I'm starting to look around if there is a distro that could be called rock solid.
