I'm posting here because I'm using Puppy Linux Lupu 5.2.5, But I've had similar problem with WinXP pro on same machine.

I'm using FireFox 4.01.

I go to URL http://www.youtube.com/channels

Everything loads, except all the channels. I see only two channels, the rest is blank white space.

It was working, but has stopped loading all channel thumbnails for about a week now.

This works in WinXP Pro, but what does not work in WinXP Pro is the Google Images, where only a few image thumbnails are shown, the rest is blank white space.


The problem seems similar to me, just different sites and OS's.

?

With me too - but only "Most Viewed"; "Most Subscribed" seems OK. Most Viewed shows no thumbnails at all.
WinXP SP3, FF 3.6.18 and Chrome 11

If you click on "Most Subscribed" then it looks pretty normal.

it is interesting trying to understand Google's motives.

A while back, more than a year, when they changed their youtube site, they removed all navigation to the 'channels' page, but left the url active. there were complaints as it seemed a popular page, and the the channel navigation was somewhat prominent.

So why remove a listing that shows high public interest? They seem to want more control over what you are able to see...
