Note: I wrote this for generic linux. In ubuntu its actually a lot simpler, just go to [m.youtube.com m.youtube.com] and click a video, you should be asked to install a plugin if you dont already have the proper video player. I havn't yet tested this personally however.
Youtube's mobile site uses rtsp to stream videos instead of flash. These can be made to work on PowerPC linux systems in place of the normal youtube site.
In firefox go to about:config
search for
network.protocol-handler.expose-all
and set its value to false.
create a new boolean entry
network.protocol-handler.external.rtsp
Go to youtube and click a video
when asked to choose a program point it to any media player that supports rtsp ( /usr/bin/vlc )
go back to about:config and find
network.protocol-handler.expose-all
set it back to true. If you don't set it to true you will be asked anytime you click on a link regardless or protocol.
