I reproduced the same problem on a ubuntu 9.10 liveCD :
After booting on the liveCD, I installed version 185 of the nvidia proprietary
drivers, as proposed a few seconds after the boot.
Then, I installed the ubuntu-restricted-extras package (in order to have the
proprietary flash plugin).
I launched firefox, and opened the link above ("Home" movie in youtube) : the
computer froze after a few minutes playing the movie.
If it helps, here is the lspci output regarding my video card :
03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV44A [GeForce 6200] (rev
a1)
