"Linux Boxee users may be able to upgrade to the new
version of Boxee, version 0.9.11.5777M (April 26, 2009 build), by
launching the Update Manager tool (Menu > System >
Administration > Update Manager) on their Ubuntu systems. If
that doesn't do the trick, you can open up the Synaptic package
manager (Menu > System > Administration > Synaptic),
search for boxee using the "Quick Search" function, and then
reinstall it by right-clicking on the program's name and marking it
for reinstallation.
"The current support for Hulu, an effort to sidestep Hulu's
content redistribution concerns, leverages Boxee's RSS feeds in
conjunction with a customized mozilla browser engine that's part of
the latest Boxee release. Evidence of this less-integrated approach
is seen as Hulu's home page momentarily flashes on the screen just
prior to Hulu's content menu (shown above) appearing on the
screen."
