Like me, from the beta3 dual. I will install the dvd (also coming beta3) with gnome and kde.

Comment 4 Manuel Hiebel 2013-03-09 22:43:10 CET

clean install in vbox, I can't reproduce in gnome or kde (video launched in html5)

Status: NEW => UNCONFIRMED

Comment 5 Thomas Spuhler 2013-03-09 23:43:39 CET

OK, I will check it when the b-3 live CD is out.
My box has been updated so many times and maybe something went wrong along the way.

Comment 6 Thomas Spuhler 2013-03-11 15:29:39 CET

I checked it on another virtual install, also upgraded from mga2. It doesn't happen.
I am going to close it as invalid and will open it again if it shows on a new install.

Status: UNCONFIRMED => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => INVALID
