Tracks skipping on Youtube

[Realitycheck]

Does anybody else get this? On my previous computer, it did it. Then, when I upgraded to this computer, they ran fine, but now it does it often enough. I'm thinking that I probably have more stuff running in the background for some reason and taking up enough RAM, but I just wanted to check. [edit] Yeah, never mind. Even for Linux, 256 MB is not enough anymore, as it has 76 MB free of RAM and using 195 MB of swap, as well, without even running a video. But then, when I run a video, it has a very trivial effect on the numbers - like only a few kb/sec. Ahh, the ones that skip download at about 175 kb/sec.

 

Also, does anybody know why ipv6 keeps turning itself back on?

If you go Control Panel > Network Connections > right click on LAN > untick IPv6 and then OK, does it not save the setting?

 

I don't seem to have an IPv6 service (in services.msc), and there's no mention in msconfig (other than a help service), so I'm unsure why it would turn itself back on.

 

What OS are you using?

 

And how do you find the stream rate of YouTube videos?

Sorry, using Ubuntu. It does not happen immediately, but eventually. Stream rate was detected on system monitor.
