   btw, Viewing video with Gnash from YouTube has worked since April 2nd.
 To make it work on the OLPC you need to use ffmpeg, which may not be an
 option. ffmpeg has the only FLV decoder for Flash video, and even when
 using Gstreamer, it uses an ffmpeg to gstreamer plugin. Using my own build
 of ffmpeg, I've had YouTube working on an X0, although only at about 3
 fps. Embedded video runs at more like 15 fps, so I assume there is a
 networking issue.
