Downloading a video from youtube onto Machine D's desktop I get a
download speed of about 7Kbytes/sec. Which is very low. If I try to
download the same one by ssh'ing into mahcine S and running wget on the
same url, I get a download speed of 80Kbytes/sec (ie more than 10 times
faster).


I'm having some problems too. YouTube just doesn't load for me, no
matter what network I'm connected to. It works under Epiphany and
Iceweasel but under Galeon (My main browser) it just doesn't load.

I've tried clearing cookies, cleaning the cache, but nothing works. I
haven't purged it yet because I customized Galeon a lot, but if anyone
thinks it would help I'd purge/reinstall.


Before you purge/reinstall, try creating a new user (one without all
your personal customizing) and try again. Purge/reinstall doesn't touch
config files in the home directories.

OTOH, for various reasons, I've given up on all the geko-based browsers
(zilla/galeon/ice) and use Konqueror. It seems much more functional
(getting things done) in addition to nicer configs and bookmark editor.

Nope, does the same thing for guest/root. So purging and reinstalling it
my last option, I hope this works.

But it still does the same thing. Even with a fresh install of Galeon it
doesn't want to load YouTube. Should I file a bug against the Galeon
package or call this one of those 1/1,000,000 things?
