gnash does YouTube just fine, but not when it's embedded in the page (people
used to complain when I did this), so you need to provide a hyperlink. Flash
8+ adopts some proprietary codecs though, which is bad news (I tries to
explained this to jd, but Adobe is just too obsessed with matching
Silverlight 'features', which means they'll concede freedom).
