I've recently installed Ubuntu 12.04 on some friend machine. He's migrating from Windows XP, and i'm his guide.
Right now he's having a problem with some youtube videos.

All the videos from that yt user seems to have the same trouble.
Problem is, when going to full screen, my friend sees this:
So i try the video here, on my job's PC, were also have Ubuntu 12.04, and see it fine.
I ask him about the browser. Google Chrome. Ask him then to try Firefox, and says that in Firefox it works fine. I'm on Firefox too.
When i try the video on Chrome here on my job, i do see it ok in fullscreen, BUT, i notice that Chrome takes a few seconds to actually maximize it. That is, it's costly for Chrome to go fullcreen. Then try another video from another youtube user in Chrome, and it goes fullscreen fine.
So, something's wrong with those videos.
As i go everywhere installing Ubuntu, and have no idea of what is going on here, i would like to learn what is happening here.
My friend has a nVidia GEForce 9800 GT with 319 drivers. I have an old legacy ATI here on my job.
Any clue?
