I am a new Ubuntu user, some past experience of Debian, but nothing to write home about.

I am a perl enthusiast on StackOverflow.com, and I am loving the Ubuntu experience. Right now, I barely see any reason to stick with Windows.

Perhaps you should post your .bashrc anyway.

@Marcel Looks like it might be the same answer, I saw that in the search, but didn't connect it to my question, with the iPython and Shell keywords.

Thanks for your reply. Yes, I have tried that, but I find it a bit... finicky. It will not allow me to scroll through commands beginning with the partial, it only shows the first. It also searches the entire command for the character, which is sort of useless.

Ah, right you are. The h.264 codec is missing. Don't see it in the software centre. Oh well, I'll have a look around and see if I can find it.

Oh, seems that HD is working with flash player & Chromium. I guess that solves it then. Although I am not keen to give up firefox.

Nope, same thing. Most of my subs' videos are still using the Adobe Flash player instead of html5. One isn't, but that's it.

Well, it says FF4 is supported, and I am using 6. Also, I have no support for that h.262 codec. I'll give Chromium a try, seems they are just about the same, except Chromium is open source. Thanks.

In fact, I've only seen it once so far, so my saying that "it works" is making generalisations based on a rather small sample.
