Street view shows a blank black view using build 6328 on Ubuntu
On both Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10 and Ubuntu 9.04 x86-64, Street View on Google Maps only shows a blank black screen instead of the desired photographs. I verified that Flash is installed (or rather, Google did
). Thanks for checking this stuff out devs!

Sarcasm? They're overflowing with browser sniffing (issues).

That's weird, because it works fine on my 10.10 installation. Here are my User-Agent strings:
Working 10.10:
Opera/9.80 (X11; Linux i686; U; en) Presto/2.2.15 Version/10.10
Not working build 6330:
Opera/9.80 (X11; Linux i686; U; en) Presto/2.5.24 Version/10.53
Working build 6330:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; U; en; rv:1.9.1.6) Gecko/20091201 Firefox/3.5.6 Opera 10.53
Barring version-based blocking on Google's part (which would just be ironic), the only thing I can think of is that my stable is installed from apt-get while build 6330 was installed using the local installation script from the tarball. So is version-based blocking the likely culprit here? I can't imagine why Google would acknowledge Opera only just enough to allow a subset of versions, especially without listing those versions as "supported".

Doesn't work all the time for me either on XP SP3. It used to work about 75% of the time in 9.8x, dropped to 50% of the time in 10.5x and in build 3390 is down to working about 10% of the time.
Edit to add: Well how about that. Changed to "Mask as Firefox" and it seems to working now.

I can confirm that after masking to Firefox google street view is working.
