No, after each and every Lubuntu Instalaltion, I do:

sudo apt-get install lubuntu-restricted-extras

By the way, I forgot to mention something. That machine has:

I can increase the amount of memory for the video card but on the other

I'm allocating the Minimum which is 32MB. I am not sure if that will make
any difference?
