Have you tried by switching the Konqueror 'identity' to IE Version 6.0 on Windows XP?

I did and then I got an error about flash 8. I have the flash-nonfree installed.

Some shows, e.g. "Lost" are available via the Boxee, the Linux Compatible player from boxee.tv.

(tested and working on 08-17-2009)

Basically, once you sign up for a free boxee account, you can then get the boxee player, and from the applications>video>hulu feeds section you can find Lost.

Here are the simple instructions for adding the boxee repo in Ubuntu:

1) Go to System > Administration > Software Sources.
2) In Sources Software dialogue, select Third-Party Software tab, click Add, and enter:
for Intrepid: deb http://apt.boxee.tv intrepid main
for Jaunty: deb http://apt.boxee.tv jaunty main
3) After closing this dialogue you can either use Synaptics and select Boxee for download, or use a terminal window, and enter sudo apt-get install boxee.

To run Boxee, Applications > Sound & Video > Boxee

I've been trying to raise some awareness about the movenetworks issue here:

Good luck!
