OK, I have Flash Player installed and can watch YouTube videos.

However, I can't see the text at the end that asks if I want to replay the video, see other videos from the individual poster, or see the related videos. I can see the icons fine but not the text.

Is there something else I'm supposed to install?

I just loaded a YouTube video, using firefox 1.5 with flash 7. Text appeared at end of video on top of frame for replay, other videos, etc.

So is the default version of Firefox incapable of this? Do I need to upgrade to 1.5? If so, how do I do this?

Check the MyDsl UCI repository.

I used MyDSL to upgrade Firefox to version 1.5. But I STILL cannot see the text at the end of the Youtube videos. Can anyone PLEASE tell me what's wrong?

You need the flash plugin, flashplayer.xpt and libflashplayer.so. (guess you already have that....)

I also load java...jre1_5.0.uci (not sure if you need it for YouTube)

Adblockers??

I installed the Seamonkey 1.0.3 MyDSL extension and the JRE extension mentioned, and I STILL cannot see the text at the end of the Youtube videos (the replay, send to a friend, and the part of the screen immediately under the replay/send buttons that links to related videos.

Why is this such a problem for me? I never had this problem in Internet Explorer or in Seamonkey under Puppy Linux. What is the one missing ingredient?
